Helping others become even better versions of themselves
If you want to know what the future will be look at what you are doing now.
What we do now always shapes the future.
Now is the only time and when we get to a future point it will be now.
So if we always focus on now then there is no need to consider or worry about the future.
The worry about the future is where all our suffering comes from.
I’m 54 years old and I struggle to think of anything that has happened to me that has been really bad, as in life threateningly awful, really, really bad. Furthermore, anything that I have not been able to deal with.
Yet in my mind, I have imagined almost every horrific thing that you could come up with and not just once but again and again and yep, again. If all the bad things I had imagined might happen, had happened, well I wouldn’t be 54 and I wouldn’t be writing this blog. Even if 1% of them had occurred, then life would have been beyond description ‘bad’.
We can stop our worrying…bad things happen in the mind, which we control. In real life not much happens really…we to be worried about and the worrying stops us enjoy the good.
