Stop worrying and stay present – Do what you want

Do you ever wake up sometimes but are caught up about worrying about what's going to happen two days from now or an event that occurred yesterday that put your mood down. In the past when I was a teenager I always thought too much about what's going to happen the next day or why that person said "X". My thoughts would be caught up on thinking too much about the future or the past. I remember sometimes I would think about what I am going to plan on doing on the weekend four days in advance or think too much about "What if this or that happens".

 

A lot of us spend the day thinking too much and forgetting to value our present time. I am not saying that you shouldn't think about your future. There is nothing wrong with setting long term goals and thinking about your future, what I'm trying to say is don't just sit there and worry about what's going to happen in 20 years, or worry about a tragedy that could occur. The more you think about this kind of stuff the less you appreciate your present time. Count how many times your mind is cluttered with a thousand thoughts while you are walking on the street like that professor that put you down, worrying about how many kids you are going to have in the future, worrying and asking yourself what groceries you need to get in 4 days.

 

It's true that we are human and we have emotions therefore we all worry to a certain level. But some of us just can't live in the present moment and appreciate the day that we are given. Some of us also have so many goals that we want to accomplish yet we sometimes spend the day worrying or thinking about some things that we have absolutely no control over. Learn to live, love, and breathe by what's in your present moment.

 

Do everything you want to and spend more time in savoring the present day: Buy the car DVD player that you desire to get to make your car more luxury and stylish and don't hesitate to spend some money on it; try your best to stay with your dearest parents, lover, and children and value everyday you spend with them; do something to have fun while you feel exhausted after a busy day; have a big dinner with your family for the festival; learn something new or discover more interests and many more. In short, always live in the moment and don't regret what you have done and worry about what's going to happen.
