Don't Live In The Future

Living in the moment doesn’t mean throwing away all your responsibilities and cares. It doesn’t mean taking off and being a total pleasure seeker. It doesn’t mean sitting cross-legged and breathing deeply.
Although all and any of these things is fine if you want. It just means taking a moment or two every now and then to appreciate being alive and to aim to act like today matters and live life to the full, right here, right now.
We can’t project all our future happiness into the future
"Oh if only I were richer/younger/healthier/happier/had a better job/had nicer bla bla "
Unfortunately, it doesn’t work like that.
When this and that gets changed, there will always be something else, waiting its turn and putting off that happiness until some later date.

Forget bigger and better and richer and thinner.
The key is to appreciate what we’ve got right now and yet still dream and plan.

Good advise! I am a dreamer with lots of 'ifs', perhaps it's about time to shake off the dreams and face reality...😊
Very true! No point bla bla bla and not do anything... act on it. I like the way you think haha
Yea, plus people are so used with 'What if, what if, what if ∞' like duhhh.
Dreaming is the easy part!
Well said buddy ! Dare to be different 😎
