How many times have you spent a sleepless night worrying about what will happen the next day or even further down the road? I know that there have been countless nights I have found myself in such a situation. What good does this serve? Usually, the only result is a sleepless night followed by a groggy morning. One of my favorite sayings is that worrying is like riding an exercise bike. You get really tired, but you do not get anywhere.
Our greatest possession, and one that is less valued than ever, is the present moment. Regretful about the past? The only way to change it is to act differently in the present. Worrying about the future? The best way to prepare for it is the actions you will take today.
