The secret of everlasting change is to focus on daily actions that you can take in the present moment and to reel your mind back in from living in the past or the future.
How can we do this?
Change doesn't come easy. In fact, true long-lasting change comes at a price of devoting your entire life to taking daily steps. While we can make small changes on the spot, to make significant tectonic shifts in your life you will have to employ a completely different set of tactics than you used before.
The past and the future can be equally dangerous in keeping your mind out of the present moment. In fact, while most people consider the past to be more negative and the future to be more positive, there isn't really isn't much difference between them except for the fact that one has passed. Both are destructive if they keep your head out of what's going on right now.
The journey of change is far from being a straight line. Think about how many people really attempt to make great changes the on the first of January. Statistically, about 92% of those who make New Years Resolutions fail miserably close to the beginning of the year. 92%. The numbers don't lie so there must really be something incredibly broken with that system of goal setting.
So how can we change this?
The plan for change is not as hard as you would imagine. In fact, it's incredible easy. Ready? Decide that you are going to focus on one thing a day to improve your life and do it. Elevate one aspect of your life every single day and you wouldn't believe what could happen to your life over the course of a year, two years, five years and so on.
Start the journey of change right now, one step at a time.
Do it right now.
