Zaka zingapo zapitazo, gulu la ofufuza ochokera ku University of Virginia ndi Harvard University adaganiza zophunzira momwe anthu amatha kudzisangalatsira okha-opanda zododometsa monga mafoni, magazini, kapena nyimbo. Iwo amaganiza kuti zingakhale zosavuta, chifukwa cha ubongo wathu waukulu, wogwira ntchito wokhala ndi zokumbukira zosangalatsa komanso zidziwitso zomwe tidatenga panjira.

Koma kwenikweni, ofufuzawo adazindikira kuti anthu chidani kukhala okha ndi malingaliro awo. Pakafukufuku wina adaphatikizanso pakuwunika kwawo, pafupifupi wachitatu sanathe kuzichita ndikubera kusewera mafoni awo kapena kumvera nyimbo panthawi yophunzira. M'malo ena, gawo limodzi mwa magawo atatu a otenga nawo mbali achikazi ndi magawo awiri mwa atatu a amuna omwe adatenga nawo gawo adasankha kudzidzidzimutsa okha ndi magetsi kuti adzisokoneze pa chilichonse chomwe chikuchitika m'mitu yawo.

Ngati izi zikuwoneka ngati zopenga kwa inu, ganizirani izi: Mukufuna kuthamanga. Mumatuluka m'makutu anu ndikutulutsa foni yanu kuti muzindikire kuti-wokondedwa mulungu, ayi-yatha. Tsopano dzifunseni nokha, ngati kugwedezeka kwamagetsi kungapangitse iTunes kubwereranso, kodi mungatero? Osati wamisala tsopano, sichoncho?

M'malingaliro mwanga, zikuwoneka kuti pali mitundu iwiri ya othamanga: Omwe amamenya misewu mosangalala ali chete, ndi omwe angalole kutafuna mkono wawo wakumanzere m'malo mopereka mahedifoni. Ndipo moona mtima, nthawi zonse ndakhala ngati membala wamsasa wachiwiri.M'malo mwake, ndimawona othamangawo osakhala chete. Nthawi zonse zimawoneka choncho ulaliki za izi. "Ingoyesani!" iwo akanatilimbikitsa. "Ndi mwamtendere kwambiri!" Eya, mwina sindikufuna mtendere pa mtunda wa makilomita khumi ndi umodzi. Mwina ndikufuna Eminem. (Kupatula apo, kafukufuku akuwonetsa kuti nyimbo zitha kukuthandizani kuthamanga mwachangu ndikumva kukhala olimba.)

Koma chomwe ndimaganiza chinali nsanje. Kuthamanga mwakachetechete amachita amawoneka amtendere, ngakhale kusinkhasinkha. Nthawi zonse ndimamva ngati ndikuphonya, ndimangogaya ma mile popanda kulowa mu zen weniweni yomwe imabwera pokhapokha mutazimitsa zosokoneza zonse-woyera kuthamanga. Chifukwa chake m'mawa wina wachisangalalo, nditaiwala kuti ndimalipiritsa foni yanga, ndidatuluka wopanda malankhulidwe a Marshall Mather m'makutu mwanga. Ndipo zinali ... zabwino.

Sizinali zenizeni zosintha moyo zomwe ndimayembekezera, kunena zowona. Sindinakonde kumva mpweya wanga pomwe ndimathamanga. (Kodi ndatsala pang'ono kumwalira?) Koma ndimamverera kuti ndili wolumikizidwa kwambiri ndi dziko lapansi. Ndinamva mbalame, kumenyedwa kwa nsapato zanga m’bwalo la miyala, mphepo ikuwomba m’makutu mwanga, mawu a anthu pamene ndinali kudutsa. (Ena akufuula chakale "Thawani Nkhalango, thawani!" Kapena chinthu china chomwe ndichachidziwikire kuti chikwiyitsa wothamanga, koma mungatani?) Ma mile adadutsa mwachangu momwe amachitira ndikamamvera nyimbo. Ndidathamanga liwiro lofanana ndi nthawi zonse.

Koma chinachake chodabwitsa chinachitika. Ngakhale ndidakhala ndi chidziwitso chabwino, nthawi yotsatira ndikaganiza zogwiritsa ntchito nyimbo za sans, mantha onse akale aja adabwerera. Ndiganiza chiyani? Kodi ndingatani ngati ndatopa? Bwanji ngati kuthamanga kwanga kukuvutikira? Sindingathe kuchita. Mahedifoni adalowa, voliyumu idakwera. Kodi chinali kuchitika chiyani?

Bwererani ku Yunivesite ya Virginia yophunzira yachiwiri. Ndi chiyani chokhala nokha ndi malingaliro athu omwe akumva kotero otibweza tikhoza kudzidzimva tokha kuposa momwe timachitira? Olemba maphunzirowa anali ndi chiphunzitso. Anthu ndi ovuta kuwunika malo awo, kufunafuna zowopseza. Popanda chilichonse chofunikira kuti muziyang'ana pa-cholembera kuchokera kwa bwenzi, Instagram feed-timakhala osasangalala komanso opanikizika.

Kudziwa kuti panali chifukwa chothandizidwa ndi kafukufuku kuti ndimangokhala kuti ndimangokhala chete kunali kotonthoza. Ndipo zidandipatsa chiyembekezo kuti nditha kuphunzira kuthamanga kwambiri. Ndinaganiza zoyamba pang'ono. Choyamba, ndinasinthanitsa nyimbo ndi ma podcast. Kubera, ndikudziwa, koma zidakhala ngati sitepe loti mukhale chete.

Kenako, ndidatsitsa pulogalamu yosinkhasinkha yotchedwa Headspace (yaulere kulembetsa, kenako $ 13 pamwezi; itunes.com ndi play.google.com), yomwe ili ndi mndandanda wosinkhasinkha wopita, kuphatikiza yoyendetsa. "Mphunzitsi," Andy, amakulankhulani mothamanga, kukuwonetsani momwe mungasinthire poyenda. Nditamvetsera kangapo, ndidayamba kuphatikizira kusinkhasinkha pang'ono mumayendedwe anga ambiri, ndikutsitsa voliyumu ya ma podcasts anga kwa mphindi zingapo ndikuyang'ana kwambiri momwe mapazi anga akugunda pansi, motsatizana. (Kuphatikiza kwakusinkhasinkha ndi zolimbitsa thupi ndizolimbikitsa kwambiri.)

Ndiyeno, m’mawa wina, ndinali pakati pa kuthamanga kwa m’maŵa, ndipo ndinangotulutsa mahedifoni anga. Ndinali kale m'malo anga, kotero ndinadziwa kuti kusunthaku sikungandipangitse kuti miyendo yanga ikhale yochepa. Linali tsiku lokongola, lotentha ndi lokwanira ka kabudula koma kozizira bwino kotero kuti sindimamva kutentha. Ndimathamanga mozungulira malo omwe ndimakonda ku Central Park. Kunali koyambirira kwambiri kuti othamanga ena okha anali kunja. Ndinkangofuna kusangalala ndi kuthamanga kwanga, ndipo kamodzi kokha phokoso lochokera m'makutu anga linkamveka ngati likusokoneza kuyenda kwanga m'malo mowathandiza. Kwa ma mile awiri otsatira, sindinkafunika kalikonse kupatula kumveka kwa kupuma kwanga, nsapato zanga zikuwomba njirayo, mphepo ikuwomba makutu anga. Apo panali-zen yomwe ndimayifuna.

Pali masiku ena pomwe zonse zomwe ndikufuna ndikungoyendera ndikumvetsera mndandanda wamasewera woyang'aniridwa bwino. Ine monga nyimbo, ndipo ili ndi phindu lamphamvu, pambuyo pake. Koma pali china chapadera chokhudza kuthamanga chete. Ndipo ngati palibe china, ndizomasuka kuti ndisakonzekerenso momwe foni yanga ililiridwenso.
