The future can be a terrifying place to engage.
In my experience, it is full of unknowns, and the last thing we need in our collective lives is more surprises, more disappointments, more drama, more…anything.
If you’re finding the future is eating your lunch and freezing you out, consider these benefits of rooting into what’s tangible and real right now, in this very moment.
- You’ll focus on the most pressing needs now.
- You won’t make decisions based on potential future needs that may never materialize.
- You won’t spend energy planning for every possible future scenario.
- You’ll be able to capitalize on your current opportunities.
- You won’t be distracted by hypothetical situations.
- You’ll be able to focus your resources on what you have right now.
The future is going to happen and it’s wise to engage in what may happen. But it shouldn’t take precedence over what’s happening for real right now, in front of you.
Spend time this week in NOW and see what happens.
