This moment, this precious moment, is the only moment in time that ever exists. Now is the only reality. Everything else exists only in your mind. That doesn’t mean that your experiences haven’t shaped you or that you shouldn’t have a plan for the future. But this here and now is the moment in which life is to be lived. This is when you get to change things, to be a master of your own reality and your own destiny. Now. Here. This moment.
When you find yourself struggling to stay in the moment, focus intently on your breathing. Feel the air coming into your lungs. Feel the energy of that breath spreading out through your body. Feel the air leaving you lungs, taking with it all of the things that no longer serve you. Breathe. Notice how, when you pay attention to your breath, you breathe more deeply; notice how, when you pay attention to your breath, you are energized.
