The present.
You already know
What the present is
You already know
Where to find it
And you already know
How it can make you
Happy and successful
You knew it best when you were younger
You have simply forgotten
*********************************
Even in the most
Difficult situations,
When you focus on
What is right
In the present moment,
It makes you happier,
And gives you the needed
Energy and confidence
To deal with
What is wrong.
*********************************
Being in the present means
Tuning out distractions
And paying attention to
What is important , now.
You create your own present
By what you give
Your attention to.
********************************
It is hard to
Let go of the past
If you have not learned
From the past.
As soon as you
Learn and let go
You improve the present.
***************************
Anytime you are
Unhappy in the present
Or feeling unsuccessful,
It is time to learn from the past
Or plan for the future.
*************************
Look at what happened
In the past.
Learn something valuable from it.
Use what you learn
To improve the present.
************************
You cannot change the past,
But you can learn from it.
When the same situation arises,
You can do things differently
And enjoy
A more successful present.
***********************
No one can predict
Or control the future.
However, the more you plan
For what you want to see happen,
The less anxious you are
In the present,
And the more the future
Is known to you.
***********************
Picture what a wonderful future
Would be like
Create a realistic plan
To help it happen
Put your plan into action
In the present.
****************
How you respond
Depends upon your purpose.
When you want to be happy
And more successful
It is time to be
In the present moment.
When you want the present
To be better than the past
It is time to learn from the past
When you want the future
To be better than the present
It is time to plan for the future.
*************************
When you live and
Work with purpose,
And respond to
What is important now,
You are more able to
Lead, manage, support,
Befriend, and love.
***********************
Success is becoming who you
Are capable of being
And progressing toward
Worthwhile goals.
Each of us defines for ourselves
What it means
To be successful.
