Seize the day! This motto from now on should be yours too. Follow it and live in the present moment. Mindlessness won’t do any good. Appreciate your life and all it offers. Change your attitude to the present.
You allow your ego to take over
Each of us is unique. We want to feel special. Most of us expect people around to appreciate our existence. We also need to be respected and even honored. But don’t you think that this is not your true nature but your ego that takes over? Look around and you’ll see that there’re hundreds of people who need care and attention more than you. Help them out! Express yourself through your kindness and friendliness towards others. Quit thinking about your desires and needs. Your life does not spin only around you and your wishes. Your existence will be far more meaningful if you participate in other people’s life.
Your racing thoughts won’t let you calm down
All the time your mind is busy. Your thinking mind is constantly creating new thoughts and idea. You may sometimes notice that your thoughts won’t let you fall asleep at night. That’s wrong since you need to feel the present more often. It does not mean that we want you to stop thinking ahead and be mindless. But if you feel that your racing thoughts keep filling up all of your spare time, it means you do not appreciate the present moment. Calm down and let your mind relax. You cannot plan the future and worrying about it too much will eventually lead to psychological and emotional problems.
