Breathe in the moment.
Honor yourself.
And just be.
It’s a terrible habit that many of us embody. The constant flux of our lives brought on by no one except ourselves. Brought on by what we perceive as “normal” or “part of the status quo”. So, instead of stopping and questioning some of it, most of it, or even all of it, we play into it this idea that it’s just the way things are. But, is that the way things are supposed to be?

Well, do you want the real answer or some roundabout one that doesn’t address the question? I’d hope that you want the former, because that’s what I’m going to give you regardless. So, read this carefully: THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE MOMENT YOU ARE IN RIGHT NOW!

I didn’t mean to yell, but I am just very passionate about this subject. I hope you understand. You see, to be in the moment. To be truly invested in the moment isn’t something that is outright taught to us as children, teens, adults, or even in our latter years. Instead, it’s a concept that we need to actively seek out and search for in order to create this very necessary mindset shift.

But, how does someone take that step on this new journey towards a life changing transformation? Like with any new venture, it’s literally one step at a time. I know that I may be making it sound a whole heck of lot easier than it really is. I get that. I do. However, what in this world that you deem worth it comes easy or without any resistance, challenges, or roadblocks? Nothing. Absolutely nothing that is genuinely worth it comes without some type of struggle.

I just want you to recognize that this is me speaking from personal experience and that’s all I can do. That’s all any of us can do to be honest. So, I don’t know about you, but for myself, I’ve never cracked the code and figured out any secret shortcuts that brought me what I’ve been looking for like it was literally handed to me.

That means there is only one way to be in the moment, be here right now, and just be. And that is through awareness and acceptance of what is. Then, and only then in my opinion can you start the work and embark towards the pending changes that you deserve for yourself. But, don’t wait too long because tomorrow never actually comes and before you know it, it’s 6 months, 1 year, 5 years down the line and you’re in the exact same position as you always were.

The decision is yours. You know that right?
