2011 is gone. It’s over. Get over it.
There may be things you regret, things you didn’t do and things you wanted to do differently. Some dreams may have come true, while others may now seem even farther away than before.
365 days of anxiety and laughter, worry and hope, friction and victory, contraction and relaxation…all in all, a big mix of emotions, thoughts and deeds that colored a year for you.
Let it go. Forget about it. The good and the bad alike, allow it to be where it will stay – THE PAST.
You have a new year ahead of you, full of possibility and opportunity, to do things in a new way, better way, joyous way. But more importantly, you have NOW.
And NOW.
And NOW.
And NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!
Make the most of it.
Years from now, that will be what you’ll ask yourself:
- Did I make the most of where I was?
You can change old patterns of thought, do things differently and live more fully, but only if you embrace the moment and what it has to offer you.
NOW is ALL you have.
Make the most of it.
Think big, dream big & live big!
Much love,
Josip
Hello Josip,
Thanks for the great post. It is a reminder we all need to consider every moment a gift and live that moment to the fullest. To live in the present – to live in the now is the only true form of living. The past is history, the future a mystery and the now is a gift. That’s why they call it the present.
I find if I only concern myself with the present and doing what I can do now I do much better than if I try to make long resolutions or plans. I believe I can only change what I can change now. I can’t change for the better for six month, but I can do it for a minute.
The person that I will be in a week, a month or six months from now is very different from who I am now. So I just focus on the now and try to work on changing and improving myself for just today and just in this moment. Then tomorrow I will be different and I can evaluate if I want to continue with my new plan and the new me.
None of us can say with any certainty that we will even be here next year so why make plans now that the person I will be a year from now needs to do. That doesn’t make sense to me.
Most of the time when I string 7 to 10 living in the “now” minutes, hours and days together I find I can continue with that new and better me because now it is a thought and behavior that has become a habit and I did it one minute, one hour, 1 day and finally one week at a time.
So here is to changing your life one moment at a time. Happy New Year.
Great reminder on how to stay in the moment. When one begins to embrace the present moment there is much to be grateful for. This gratitude allows even more manifestation. Awesome post !
