How to be in the moment and live in acceptance EP 109
from The High Cost of Anonymity Podcast: Exploring the Cost of Keeping Your Life Experience to Yourself · host Preston Moore, K Preston Moore
I have this tendency to live everywhere else but in the moment. I am either in the past or in the future. In other words, I naturally gravitate towards fearing the future or looking to the future for something to change the way I feel like. For example, I have a new pair of Jordan's showing up today. Oh, how great I'm going to feel when I have them in my hands and get my first complement, lol! Or when this Corona thing is all over, "then" I'll feel better. When this money comes in, "then" I'll feel so much more secure. When I get this new job, "then" I'll be back on track. And one of my favorites, if my wife would just get off my back, "then" I'll be happier! The reverse is also true. Regretting or idealizing the past. For example, I'm such a loser, why did I say that or eat that or not do that. Why did I not work out again today! Or, I was so much happier in my 20's, if I could just get back to that time in my life, "then" everything would be OK... Or, I was so much happier when I was single with no kids, lol. Lets be real, life was pretty easy when all I had to worry about was me! On this episode, I talk about the most important thing in the world... the ability to be in the moment. A little extreme? Maybe. However, what I know for sure is, when I have the ability to be a peace exactly the way my life is, the way the world is, the way my son is, the way my wife is, how my finances are, the way my body looks... and on and on and on. I don't need things to be different for me to be happy. I don't need you to change for me to be at peace. I don't need anything more than what I have right now for me to be OK. It is from this place where I can live into my potential and start making the changes I am called to make. Not out of fear or guilt or shame but out of grace, certainty, and inspiration.
