Be Present In The Moment

Be Present In This Moment Affirmation

“I will focus my thoughts on the present.  I will not live in the past.  I neither try to relive the glory that has gone nor ruminate on mistakes I have made.

The past has already happened, and there is nothing I can do to change the wrongs that were done, nor is there any way to relive the triumphs gone by.

I will let the future happen as it comes and focus on affecting it through the control I have on my actions today in this present moment.

I will always remember this brief second is all I have.

I will find my eternity in each moment.”
adapted from Sid’s personal affirmations, and inspired by The Greatest Salesman in The World by Og Mandino
