It's not the easiest thing to do, but you really do have to slow down and take some time to really be "here."
you can spend your entire life living in the past or living in the future. Sometimes, you don't even know that you're stuck there.
Truth is, you can't go back and change the past and you can't go to the future because there's absolutely no way to get there.
That doesn't mean that people don't try to live in the future. That doesn't mean that people don't try to skip out of the storm that's their life right now and avoid everything they know they need to fix.
The truth is, as ridiculous as it may sound, you only have this moment. You only have the moment you are in right now and that's the only place where you can survive.
When you let go of the past and the future and show up in this moment, you make contact with something so incredibly powerful. Truly, for someone who has only spent their live avoiding living in the moment, being in this space can be absolutely life changing.
That power comes from presence...you've actually showed up as the hero in your life instead of trying to avoid being someone else or "being someone in the future." You get to be yourself for once. You get to live in honest moments.
What happens if you decide to avoid life? Major tragedies.
But you get to make this decision every single day. Don't think that just because you decided one day to avoid life that you can't come back and make a better decision the next day. It's your choice if you want to live the life that will lead you incredible amounts of unhappiness or happiness. That decision is on you.
That's 100% your choice completely.
So make the proper choice.
It's time to decide that you're going to live in the present moment and head straight into the challenge that it brings you. Time to truly live.
