how to live in the present
Don't think about yesterday, tomorrow, or the day before that. Think only about the present.
Studies have shown that we spend almost 85% of our attention on the past and future, and just 15% on the present.
It is important to live in the present because if you spend too much time thinking about the past or future, you cannot focus on the present.
Below are 4 methods of living in the present:
1. Focus on one task at a time.
2. Bring awareness to your breathing.
3. Be in the present.
4. Live in the moment.
Don't dwell on the past or worry about the future.
Being present, 100% of the time, is hard. Here are a few tips to help you achieve it.
