Today, I’m here to let you in on a secret to a more fulfilling life – living in the present. Sounds simple, right? But trust me, it’s a skill that needs mastering, and once you do, it’s a game-changer!
Before you can start to plan your success goals, there are many things that you need to understand before you can be sure that the goals you set are really the ones you want.
One of those things is to determine if there are any Limiting Beliefs that can stop you from actually achieving those goals.
I have a self-study Limiting Belief Program that you can go through to determine what your Limiting Beliefs are and how you can remove them.
You can read more and register for the program at Limiting Beliefs Program on my Confidence and Life Coaching website.
Start your journey on your path to success by identifying and removing your Limiting Beliefs so that you make the journey a lot easier.
Why Live in the Present?
Living in the present is like hitting the pause button on the constant chatter in your brain. It’s like a mini-vacation for your mind, and who doesn’t love a good vacation, right? When you’re fully present, you’re not fretting over yesterday’s mishaps or tomorrow’s challenges. You’re right here, right now, soaking in the world around you. And guess what? It’s an instant stress-buster and productivity booster!
Mastering the Art of Presence
So, how do you make this magic happen? Here’s a guide to help you live more fully in the present:
- Be a Noticer: When you’re not knee-deep in a task, take a moment to observe your surroundings. On a walk? Notice the rustle of leaves, the chirping of birds, the scent of fresh earth. It’s not just about seeing, it’s about hearing, feeling, and smelling too. Remember, in that moment, your life is unfolding right there, in those little details.
- Stay on Task: Whether you’re mowing the lawn or drafting a report, give it your all. Keep your mind from wandering off on a tangent. It’s like training a puppy – when it strays, gently bring it back on track. You’ll be surprised at how much you can achieve when you’re truly focused. Plus, there’s no room for stress when you’re fully absorbed in the task at hand.
- Breathe: Having trouble focusing? Turn to your trusty sidekick – your breath. It’s always there, steady and constant. Focusing on your breath can help reel in a wandering mind. Give it a shot for 10-15 minutes, and you’ll be ready to dive into your next task with renewed focus.
- Practice Makes Perfect: Make a fun challenge out of it. Can you wash the dishes without a single stray thought? Remember, even thinking about being done counts as a stray thought. Make this a part of your daily routine, and you’ll soon see the difference.
- Night-time Breathing: Use your bedtime to practice focusing on your breath. Instead of worrying about your day or the one ahead, just breathe. It’s a surefire way to a peaceful slumber.
The Journey to Presence
Mastering the art of being present isn’t a cakewalk, but think of it as a workout for your brain. With consistent practice, you’ll see progress, and trust me, the rewards are well worth the effort!
