I meditateddd!

I meditated for 15 minutes today. Distractions are very tempting to me, so of course I wanted to open my eyes right after I closed them. BUT I fought my urges and kept them close. Multiple times I felt like opening and checking my phone for the number of minutes remaining for it to hit the 15-minute mark (Although I had set up an alarm for 15 minutes). But again I thought that the alarm is already set, why do I have to be proactive with distractions? Now the next problem was the thoughts, and well let me tell you, I had full-blown conversations in my thoughts. And then I realized what was I doing. So, as I once learned in Headspace that you can imagine yourself sitting on a bench and watching the thoughts as cars. So, I did the same, and the road was chaos (depicting the state of my mind). Then I would see myself boarding a car of thought, and after a minute I would realize and get out of the car. And then, the alarm went off, and I felt super good because I consciously closed my eyes for 15 minutes.
