The other day I ran across the expression "Living In The Now". The theory is that we should not focus on the past with it’s it mistakes and errors nor focus on the future worrying about what is going to happen next.
Instead we should "Live In The Now"!
This doesn’t mean you can’t plan for retirement. This doesn’t mean you should not learn from past mistakes. What is does mean is that we should focus on today!
Should of, would of, could of thinking is self-disruptive thinking. Lost jobs, lost loves, and lost opportunities are not in the "now". Instead they are in the past.
Worrying about future events over which we have little or no control is not in the "now".
"Live In The Now" is living life to the fullest using our resources, education, and financial situation. A "One Day At A Time" approach to life.
As children if our basic needs were met we didn’t concern ourselves with the past or worry about the future. Our life today will also become exciting and rewarding once we take the effort to experience everything surrounding us.
Living "In The Now" will bring you to the present moment and all it offers.
