The only way to deal with the future is to function efficiently in the Now

Ahhhh.. the ever present moment.  Espoused as they proverbial Key to life from so many different angles -spiritual, religious, famous quote, self-motivational speakers, Buddha, God, yadda yadda yadda. Why?  Because it’s true that being in the moment is a KEY to joy, gratitude and happiness!!!!  Easier said then done as the mind/ego easily  says in its inner voice that  you will be in the moment, you will live here and now,  but when implementation effects your daily habitual ruminating and the repetitive mind patterns the “Inner Being” clashes with the ethereal mind/ego and generally the ego wins out and you go back to the daily grind.

So how do you stay in the moment, how do you enjoy being in the moment? For me prayer and meditation help a ton.  As simple as focusing on your breathing, a few yoga stretches and listening/watching the world go by.  Stop and look around at all the objects, colors and sounds your senses are perceiving each and every moment.  Let them flow through you, go with them, feel your soul and instincts and fly baby, fly!!!
