What does it mean to live in the moment? And…is that of any true value for us to live in the moment?
To be in the moment is to fully experience what it is that we are doing right now. To be truly focused on the feeling that we are having. It means that we are not thinking about what happened before or what is going to take place after we finish what we are doing right now. It is being fully present and experiencing the very thing that we are doing.
How does that impact our lives?
Big time! Think about it, most of the time when we think about what has happened before or what is going to happen later, we find ourselves going into feelings that might not be quite desirable. We create everything in our lives by the way we feel and we only manifest what we want when we feel good. Being in the very moment and experiencing it without venturing into the past or future helps us to stay with good feelings. When we are focusing on what it is that we are doing right now and experiencing it will we find that we have much more fun with everything that we do. Suddenly, we find that driving a car becomes more enjoyable than ever before, because we are not thinking about getting to work on time. Instead, we just experience the pure driving of it. And as we concentrate on the joy of driving we become calmer and we find to our own amusement that we arrive everywhere on time.
When we start treating everything that way, we will find out that our lives are becoming simpler and we will have more fun than we ever thought was possible. And by getting better and better at applying the idea of living in the moment, we will find that the experiences that we have are enriching our lives in a very unique way and create them simply magical!
So, have fun, experience what is that you do right now and see the magic unfold in front of your eyes!
Have an absolutely magical week full of LOVE, GRATITUDE and FUN!!!
