Living In The Moment
Every
day of our lives are packed with thoughts, schedules, emotions, things to do,
things done, people to talk to, places to go, food to cook, jobs to do. It’s
hard to find a moment to breathe or just relax with a book in our hands let
alone anything else. In today’s society the demands on each of us is strenuous
at best. However, we must remember that there is no other time than the present.
Have
you ever had a hobby or something that you loved to do. Maybe it was playing
basketball, or swimming, or reading a book to your child. The point is that all
of us have had experiences in our lives where the thing or experience we were
having right in front of us was all that mattered. It was all that we were
focused on.
If
you have ever rode a roller coaster you know what I mean. As you reach the top
of the first hill and the wheels let loose, the only thing on your mind is the
experience. Your not worried about what is for lunch, or your job, or anything
else. The only thing you are thinking about, experiencing, is the moment.
We
must learn to carry these experiences into every single moment of our lives.
This is true for many different reasons. First of all it allows us to let go of
anxiety and stress about the past or future, both of which are not the present
moment. Learning to live each moment completely in the moment experiencing the
moment also allows us to create greater and more amazing results than our
distracted focus could ever allow us to do.
The
better we get at learning to live completely in the moment, the more we get in
touch with life and the energies around us. This allows us to attract those
things to us that we want much, much quicker. It allows us to make sure that
every step of the process toward the life we truly want to live is done to the
best of our ability. This allows us to enjoy the process, to experience the
journey, and to create the results that we want.
So
practice living in the moment in order to connect to life and to create the life
you want to live. Every moment becomes much more enjoyable when you are actually
there to experience it. Open up and enjoy the journey, and make sure you are
taking the journey with your eyes wide open in every single moment of it.
