I started brushing my teeth and when I'd spent about as much time with the electric toothbrush as I would have with my old one, the new one made a noise. Or it vibrated differently. Something happened, and the toothbrush kept going. So I kept going. Then after awhile it did it again. "Hmm, that's weird, is this toothbrush trying to tell me something," I wondered.
Later in the day I was still thinking about it, so I looked in the manual that came with it. Those little vibes mark 30 second intervals and when the recommended brushing time is over, it does three in a row to tell you you're done. So smart! My old one didn't do the intervals!
That night, I'm getting ready to brush my teeth and it makes that first noise and I want to put it away. I mean, surely, four times of those beeps is too many. Then I remember it's the recommended time. I paid lots to see the dentist who suggested the toothbrush that suggests I brush my teeth for two whole minutes. 2 minutes! Of my Life! When I'm busy! I don't want to stop for two minutes of my life when I'm busy to do something for my health and well-being and then I listen to what I've just thought and look at who I am and I keep brushing.
A few days later and I'm brushing my teeth and I notice I'm back to making a commitment to do the whole four times, the whole two minutes. I still want to rush! Have I ever felt these feelings before? (See past blog post. See many, many times I meditated wanting to rush to the end.)
There's nowhere to go. I've already set aside the time. I know it's going to be good for me and still I want to rush it. To get where? To the next moment when I won't be brushing my teeth anymore or sitting on my cushion anymore. To the next moment when I'll be rushing to get out of that moment to be in the next one I can hardly wait to get out of.
Today I practice brushing with awareness. I take my time, but not too much time because the toothbrush will nudge me to move on. I have time to brush my teeth. I have time to meditate. I have time when I'm not rushing the brushing.

TİC.LTD.ŞTİ 30 Tona kadar kaldırma kapasitesi -Bir çok parça yağ içinde çalıştığından aşınma ve yıpranma çok azdır. -Kullanılan yağ çok uzun ömürlüdür. -Halat kullanılan durumlarda halatın görevi sürtünme yardımı ile yükü kaldırmak olmadığından kasnak ve halatlarda aşınma olmaz. hidrolik asansör
Elektrik tahrik kasnaklı asansörlerden farklı olarak hidrolik asansörlerde motor sadece yukarı çıkış için çalışır, aşağı inişte motor çalışmaz. -Karşı ağırlık kullanılmaz. -En üstte makine dairesine ihtiyaç duymadığı için mimari açıdan da tercih sebebidir. -Çok sessiz çalışır. Binalarda motor sesi duyamazsınız. -Elektrik kesintisinde ilave sisteme gerek olmadan otomatik katına getirme ve kurtarma sistemi mevcuttur. -Deprem ve yangında daha emniyetlidir.Yangında makine dairesi alt katta olduğundan ulaşım kolaydır. Asansörün komple yükü diğer sistemlerde kuyu üstünde taşınırken hidrolik sistemlerde yük bina temeli tarafından taşındığı için atalet kuvveti daha azdır. Deprem anında büyük hasar ve yaralanma olasılığı %90 oranında azalır. Gerek villa tipi asansörler, gerek araç asansörleri ve yük asansörlerinde hidrolik asansör tercihimizdir hidrolik yük asansörü
