Enjoy Your Current Self! Gifts to Give Your Midlife Self: Part 2 of 3

If not now, when?In this 2nd part of our 3-part series on Gifts to Give Your Midlife Self, we discuss the present.How has your life changed in midlife? Are you finally enjoying yourself?Do you tell yourself that you'll enjoy life when you.....(fill in the blank)? Sometimes we set goals, and think, 'I'll be happy when these goals are reached.' Whether it's weight loss, a professional accomplishment, raising kids to adulthood or simply  getting your chores done, we all do this from time to time. The problem with allowing your happiness to hinge on a goal, or a future accomplishment, is that it never comes! Once that goal is reached, there's always something else on the horizon. Even when you reach a goal, the feeling of success is temporary. You may feel euphoric for a time, but then you have to get back to 'real life'.Cam and Amelia propose that you live for today! Carpe Diem. This means living 'mindfully'.In this episode, Cam and Amelia share personal stories of how we've conquered reliving the past or living in fear of the future. You can't change the past and you can't dictate the future, so why not be in the here and now??We cover the pitfalls that keep us living in the past or fearing the future. We talk about the negative soundtracks that play in our heads, tying us to a reality that avoids the current moment. This takes real effort, but it is SO worth it.All we have is the current moment.
