We always live in future as if living in the future is the only way to deal with our reality in present. We think about the time when we will get married or when our prince charming would come or sweep us off of our feet. Where is my Cinderella? Why is she taking so long to come!
When will my results come out? My god! This stress is killing me! I'm not even able to enjoy my vacations because of this stress! When will I finally look like a hero or heroine? When, when and when! This when makes us stick to our future all the time! We don't enjoy our present. We don't take the benefit or pleasure in present. Everything that pops up into our mind is related only to our future life. We have become so futuristic that now we only envision our life in future and the present holds no importance to us anymore. It's always the when and the how and the future.
Firstly, we tend to do that because we are not happy with our present. Second of all, we think that living in future will bring us out of the pain and misery that we are facing in present and that worry will solve our problems.
Do you know why we do that? We don't plan for our future. We worry about it constantly. We worry how it's going to happen and when it's going to happen.
Wayne Dyer said in his book, 'Your Erroneous Zones',
" There is nothing to worry about! Absolutely nothing. You can spend the rest of your life, beginning right now, worrying about the future, and no amount of your worry will change a thing."
I believe that's true. If only worry could change things then perhaps we would never know what living in present feels like, what embracing your journey feels like, what loving yourself feels like.
Instead of worrying why not work on improving in that area of your life? Why not find ways to work on the things where you want success, growth and progress now and not leave it all to the future?
Yes, it's possible. And yes, you can do it now. It's the now that matters first and then the future.
Forget worry and live now. Right now may be you are looking at your phone screen or typing on your laptop. This is the time to look up, feel the fresh air around you, look at the sky, the trees, the birds and be grateful where you are. And you'll live everyday as the day comes not worrying about future anymore.
