My darling coach, Nada, had me put stickies all over my home with that question on it.
It became instantly obvious that anytime I was scared - I had my full attention on the future.
Anytime I was sad or angry - I was focusing on the past.
There are many good things to remember and delight in from the past and many exciting things to anticipate in the future.
If I want to feel more powerful and alive, I focus on the now.
We can only experience this moment - now. And then this one - now.
We can never experience the ones that have passed or the ones to come. Feeling regret, anger and fear is me using this moment thinking about one that is now entirely in my mind.
Less than the highest and best use of my moment, wouldn't you say?
