Focus by Being Present

Published by macarun at 1:19 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Today we’re on to part five of the “Focusing” series, and I want to share something I learned from two books I recently read. “The Power of Now” by Ekhart Tolle, and “Siddartha”

5. Be in the NOW. I know I used to have trouble focusing on tasks because I’d always be thinking about my plans for later or about things that happened earlier. At the very least, commit an alotted time to perform the activity, and let go of everything else that has happened or might happen. Be in the PRESENT and focus on the task at hand!

Being in the now also helps you enjoy everything so much more. Angre is related to the past. Fear and stress are related to the future. All of these things make focusing (and happiness) incredibly difficult. Be in the present to be happy and focussed!
