E445: Practice Focusing On Today
Today you are exactly where you are supposed to be. The future is up to you.
- The past is just a memory
- It’s gone and nothing we do today will change it
- Stop dwelling on the past – it will not repeat unless you let it
- We must use the past for lessons and move on
- The future is just electrical charges in our brains
- Have a bill due next week and not sure how you are going to pay it? Worry will not change that, only action will
- Don’t allow yourself to get caught up in the “what-ifs” or “I will change whens” – practice taking action
- The future is shaped by the actions you take today
- Learn to focus on today – it’s the only thing that is real
- We can’t change the past but we can re-negotiate the future
- It starts with taking action today
- It can be hard to stop the dwelling so try some of these things to help
- Write down lessons learned from the past – both good and bad
- Take a walk
- Listen to some music
- Let the future be a catalyst for taking action
