Present
To spend the present worrying about the future is to miss the only life you have.
This IS all you got. Right here, right now.
No matter how much you would like to prepare for potential future outcomes, there will always be the opportunity for surprises.
Spending all of today preparing for tomorrow causes nothing but present anxiety and future disappointment, because only rarely does everything go as planned, exactly as you expect it to.
What matters is how you spend and react to this present reality. This is the only guarantee in life.
Trust in yourself that you will adapt to whatever life throws at you in the future, and release the burden of trying to control the unknown. Take back this moment of your life, reconnect to the exact spot you are in.
It is wonderful to have aspirations, to have wants and needs, but rather than shooting for the end goal every day, focus on the very next step. What can you do right now that will bring you one step closer to that goal?
Once you know what it is, take action. Don’t think too much about it, just take action and worry less.
Have faith in yourself, know that the future will forever be unknown, and focus on what you can control: who you are in this moment.
