You’ll never plough a field…

You’ll never plough a field by turning it over in your mind.

The less time we spend in our minds imagining outcomes that will never happen and the more time we spend now, in this moment, doing the things that bring us joy, the more purposeful and gratifying our lives will be.

Joy comes from living our lives now outside of our mind.

I wish us all a joyful 2019 where we all make our own difference to the world in our own unique way.

Another trip round the sun

So another trip around the sun comes to end today.

I’ve had 52 of them and often on a New Year’s eve I reflect about the past year and many times I have planned to make all these amazing changes over the next trip around.

The reality is maybe we can always keep changing or improving or searching for more, however you define improving or better or more, or we can realise that perhaps we are already the person we want to be and perhaps we can be content that we are already living the life we want.

There is always better or worse in the future, but it never happens because the future is an imaginary thing inside our own minds.

Life is now. Enjoy what you already have, don’t let’s be anxious about what might be.
