Don't dwell in the past!Don't live in the Future!!Live in the moment!!!
Everyday we wake up is a fresh start and we can make the most of it by living like today matters and keeping that enthusiasm of living in the moment requires a lot of perseverance. Sometimes we might be tempted to dwell in the past or live in the future. But the truth remains that if you want to have a successful life, you have to focus on what is happening for you right now.
When it comes to the 'past', some people dwell on it in terms of regrets, at some point in life, we have all made decisions that affected us or the people around us negatively. But the fact remains that past is past and we cannot undo what has been done. You can only choose to live life in the moment by acknowledging that you have messed up, decide and take action not to make the same mistake again.
Some people also dwell in their past because it was so wonderful and filled with good times and beautiful memories that it deprives them of the opportunity of creating better memories in the moment.
When it comes to the 'Future',some people live in the future by being caught up in their thoughts of thinking that it's in their future that everything is going to happen. They think it's in the future that they are going to be happy, successful, bigger and better.
It's not bad to dream, it's not bad to wish for a better life either, but failing to appreciate what you have now ruins your chances of being happy in the moment. You cant shift all your happiness to the future because you believe that it's only in your future that life will be good.
The key to living a happy and successful life is to accept that past is past, you can visit it, but you shouldn't live there, appreciate what you have right now and yet still dream and plan for your future.
Each time in everyday of your life is precious, dont waste so much time dwelling in your last or living in the future. What is real is this moment and the things you can hold onto in the moment. If you spend all your time living in the past and living in the future, you will miss out on the opportunity to maximize the moment. Appreciate the moment and when the going gets tough! Persevere!
Thanks for visiting my blog!
The present is what matters (we can't change the past and the future is still a dream). Living in the present and appreciating every bit of it is key to enjoying life fully. Great Post!
Well said! Thanks much dear.

good post,
Thank you.
Beautiful reminder @kweenbrand. It's always best to remain present, you can so easily miss things if you're constantly looking at things in the past or remaining to obsessed of what is going to happen in the future.
Yes. That's how it should be. Thanks much for stopping by!
This is a great reminder for everyone to appreciate the present and love the things that we have right now. I often day dream about the future and feeling that life will be complete when our dreams have come true. Thanks for the reminder to live the moment and keep an eye out for the opportunities that pass by.
You are welcome. Thanks for the beautiful comment and for stopping by!

Compelling one @kweenbrand, this post reminds me of a beautiful song, Viva by spicy girl. We only have one time to unleash our true selves, and it is in this moment.
