If you are totally in the moment - only then can you be aware.

So forget the whole world while you are eating. Eating, just eat; walking, just walk; listening, just listen; talking, just talk and remain totally in it, alert, aware of each gesture, each nuance. And slowly you will get the knack of it, the hang of it ...

... The process can be reduced into a simple formula: whatsoever you do, do it but remain alert.
