It is clearly impossible to
appreciate your present life if you spend most of your time regretting the past
and fretting the future. Living in
the present moment is the key to true happiness!
Life
seems to slow down and become more manageable when you begin living fully in the
present moment. You'll also find more energy -both physical and mental - when
you stop to constantly micromanaging your mind.
Imagine
waking each new morning filled with the excitement of not knowing exactly what
the day will hold. Sure you may be going to your regular job and engaging many
of your regular activities, but because you live in the moment there is no
sense of turmoil or subtle resistance wearing you down.
And
throughout each day, imagine the freedom you'll feel as you find and follow the
flow of life. Rather than trying to talk yourself through every waking moment
you will be listening to your intuition
and acting according to your inner guidance system.
Never
mind anything that has happened before right now. And let go of anything that
might happen at a later time!
The
author, Henry Miller once said “ Every moment is a golden one for him who has
the vision to recognise it as such.” The only moment in which we can truly be
happy is the present moment. The only moment over which we have control is the
present moment. So be happy now! Because if not now, then when?
