Live in the Now

Something that always seems to be a struggle for most people is thinking about things that have already happened. Often times we dwell on regrets or moments where we wished something else had happened. This can be a difficult thing to overcome because many of us want to feel sorry for ourselves and like to brood over how bad things have been. I have learned that this behavior only leads to even more regrets or more missed moments of opportunity. This is because we are not focused on what really matters: the present. Instead of thinking about moments that have already passed, we should be thinking about what we can do right now to improve things. The present is the only time where you can actually make changes. And once we make changes in our present, our futures will be greatly improved.

  1. It's definitely hard to see opportunities through the windshield if you are spending all your time looking in the rear view mirror. In fact, most of the time, you end up crashing.

  2. Well said. It is important to keep looking ahead because there are no opportunities behind us.
