Here in the Now
This is one of my favorite moments in “A Peaceful Warrior”: A true story of Dan Millman.
As I read through old writings and snapshots of time, I’m transposed back to the moment. But when I think of how they relate to the future, they apply as well. There is so much we say and do that give us hints to the future, but the most important thing is to be “here in the now”; to work on the present.
Here I share some negative-to-positive thoughts:
panic to… calm
get out to… venture into
stuck to… free
fear to… brave
break out to… be you
bad to… excellent
stick to… allow
illusion to… clear vision
shattered to… preserved
crumble to… rebuild
corner to… exposed
holding to… embrace new
worry to… welcome
shuffling to… meaningful, giant step
Rewrite your words and you rewrite your life, future and interior potential of now. You got it, use it. Focus. Use your inner drive to fill an empty cavern waiting to explode.
Just remember, you are on the cusp of something really good. Be present and “take out the trash”.
