Power of the present moment

Image
We so often place ourselves in the past or future and spend a lot of time thinking about these. Nothing wrong with this but when we dwell too much on the past and worry about the future, we rob ourselves of experiencing what’s in the present. So, let's be present in the present moment, and don’t waste time thinking about the past or future. The Past fills us with regret. No matter what we do we can’t change the past, but who hasn’t laid awake at night thinking back to that one embarrassing thing they did in middle school at least once? But is there a point to worrying, other than to make us miserable? The Future fills us with anxiety. While we have no effect on the past, our decisions can and do influence the future. However, also unlike the past, which we know very well, the future is entirely unknown. So, we prepare for everything and, in turn, do nothing. The Present is the only time we have control. If we want our lives to change, those changes need to happen
