Making Innovative Charts: Spirituality-Focused Version

by R.S. Pearson

Charts are a way of checking or improving our "thought inventory."

Many have problems with a lack of attention, unable to achieve goals because
of being sidetracked. Many people are complaining of attention deficit disorder.

Besides spiritual help from God and others, we can look at attention and will as the only thing that can improve a life, because all successful people use attention and will.
God gives us free will, and people can only help us so much. Beyond a certain point,
it is always a person's own attention and will that make the difference.

I thought of this idea of making charts to help me stay constructively focused. They say we are made up of our thoughts, and that our thoughts are things. All of these charts work very powerfully together. I hope others will make their own charts inspired by the examples here. Whenever there is a task that seems overwhelming, one can break it down into smaller components and make a chart out of it.

Each check mark you put on the chart can be for an action, a meditation on the subject, or a prayer to do the subject, or any combination of these.

For each chart you do, you can describe your experience with them in notes. Writing a note helps us stay focused on the item in the chart. Track the time every few minutes so that your mind doesn't wonder. This is almost essential for some people, especially with the more difficult tasks. That is, if you start at 3 PM, your page or computer screen will look something like this after a while:

3:00, 3:05, 3:09, 3:15, 3:19, 3:29, 3:35,

Sometimes it may look like this

11:00, 11:15, 11:30, 12:15, lunch, 12:50, 12:55

We cannot do charts without attention and will. When we do make charts the center of our day, we will have a visual manifestation of our prolonged consciousness and willpower.

It's better to do nothing for a while than compulsively do other things which are not to one's advantage. But when one stops doing the lesser things, one be find it hard to make progress towards one's goal.

One can put a mark on a chart if one has done the effort, or if one is about to do it. It doesn't matter. Thirty seconds of effort on each one could get a check mark, or five minutes, or one hour. They can be done in any way one finds helpful. One could fill up a book in a month, a year, or as a playful exercise, in one day. The book keeps reminding us to fill our lives with good things.

We are spirit, and part of God's spirit, if the Holy Spirit is in us. If we keep our attention active, we can have will. God requires us to exercise our will power for the best He can give us. This is scriptural. Charts are a way of focusing our attention on more beneficial areas.

There need be no evil thing in our attention if we keep our attention active, and our perception on good things. Our perception is always active, but our attention is not. Perception is the key. People can never have a "perception deficit disorder" but they can have an attention deficit disorder. Perceptions are always coming into the mind of a person with ADD.

I had to sometimes abbreviate the lines so they could fit next to the check boxes.
Sometimes the notes section below will have a more verbose description.
