If it has gotten to the point where we use a tool to remind us to be aware, that's beyond sad. Siddhartha is rolling in his grave. You’ve got to be kidding.

It is not very hard to be caught up with different things; it's the kind of society we are living in. Sometime it is nice to just be able to sit back and realize it's time to slow down and take everything in. We need to stop living in fast forward! It may be necessary to have a reminder, but at least you are willing to take advantage of it! : ) I hope that it continues to go so well for you!

Interesting thing is that I hadn't yet read this! Cosmically creepy! Thanks for sharing - I think we are all looking for ways to balance, no matter what they might be. Great find!

It doesn't hurt to have "someone" whisper in your ear every now and again to keep your balance. Thanks, as always, for sharing.

I'll give this a try. I've actually been getting a little annoyed with Twitter lately, given its relentlessness and ability to capture my attention -- no matter what else I might want to pay attention to. But an InnerTwitter tool actually makes sense to me, and I'll try it to find out whether it becomes more useful or annoying over time. Thanks, Will. I’ll give this a try.

I opted for the random times option, and the first one popped up yesterday. I got to walk away from the computer, stretch, get some water, adjust my posture, and get back to work recharged and refocussed. So, thank you for the lead and hope you find the balance too :-).
