Mindfulness...or Mindset

Mindset and Mindfulness, what is your perspective? For me mindfulness is living with intention and purpose. Mindset is how I perceive my daily attitude, the moods, and my reaction to others. It is harder to maintain a productive and positive mindset in my opinion. Being mindful can be a part of your everyday presence but keeping that mindset is harder. Especially while battling alcoholism. Why isn't it enough when I wake up with more energy, no puffiness, and no sickness? Fighting demons daily takes a toll on your mind, body and spirit. Take my energy and get shit accomplished. Whether it is a lot of little things or one big thing, get it done. Or sit my sorry ass down and drink? That is the daily battle. Health and happiness or drunken desire. Why is it so hard, one is a great mindset the other complete lack of mindfulness. Keep going, keep pursuing health and happiness, one mindful motion at a time.
