Focus on the surroundings.
1. Observe
2. Feel
3. Accept everything to you
4. Read everything you see
5. Memorize
Observe
Observing is one of the top gifts we have as humans. To do it means to exist. Observe Comes in many forms. We have talked about it before, yes; you have guessed it right, Journaling. Well, you can do observing with many techniques and many forms.
It is the art of recognizing the gifts and the surroundings subjectively without your interference or judgment. You can do it in different life aspects, fields, and senses. Likely you may observe the color of the tree, its smell, its taste, its sound, and how you feel when you touch it. It is the science of feeling your body from outside in.
It is the only way to embrace the power of now. The question here is how to do it. To answer this question, we should understand how our minds work.

I am not going to go deep into that in this article to keep it simple. But from a smooth view, our minds are programmed to think. And the first way to observe is to think. You may go for a walk and just keep looking at anything and think of nothing itself. The second way is through meditation. We know that meditation is to focus on one thing, maybe something, or maybe nothing, but once you choose, either. You should only focus on it. Yet the exercise here is to let your mind go back and forth thinking about many things without interrupting it or stopping it. In other ways, imagine these thoughts like clouds. You can skip them without stopping and looking at every cloud. In that way, you train your mind not to judge but thin, observe, and live in the here and now.
Feel
One thing that distinguishes any living creature is feeling. But what about feeling with consciousness? Knowing that you are feeling and feeling that you are knowing are the basic cores of our humanity.

Accept everything to you
Energy is the principal core of our existence. We are energy, dissipating it and will return to it.

To accept everything as it is, and receive to you according to your choice, you should embrace the unknown. To be certain is to keep away from observing. And to observe is to be like a child who embraces not knowing everything, yet chooses going forward.
Read everything you see
As we have mentioned before, observing comes or can be done in many forms. And reading is one of them.
Reading Enhances the ability to observe with your eyes. And a technique to increase your focus as well. One technique of reading everything and also focusing is to read fast and keep in mind every single word you have read as you are reading.

Memorize
What is life without memorizing? What will life be like if we keep forgetting everything, the good and bad events? I think it will be somehow very hard and sad.

This is the reason why you should enhance your memorization. To be able to enjoy life and simply observe. You can memorize roads, things, old documents, paragraphs, songs, speeches, or even this article, which will honor me, of course, if you do such a thing. So as long as you breathe, learn techniques to memorize and observe.
Conclusion
You can do observing with all your senses, as we mentioned before. It is an art and science that you should get used to.
