What is happening in the present does not always cause joy. The surging problems and depressive mood can easily unsettle. And only dreams and plans save from despondency. However, in this case, there is a great risk of living in the future, and at the same time never realizing what was planned.
Instructions
Step 1
Start this very minute to do what you have been postponing for a long time. Are you planning to learn English, but have not been able to enroll in a course for what year? Pick up your phone, open a directory, and call nearby language schools. Perhaps they will answer you so kindly and make an appointment that you just have to go to it and sign up for courses. It is necessary to take only a small step towards the goal, and the plan can be accomplished by itself.
Step 2
Imagine that you have lost everything you eat, or simply lost one of your senses. The dominant feeling that will dominate you in this case is regret that you did not enjoy simple things and did not live in the present. Admiring flowers outside the window, drinking coffee on a sun-drenched terrace, spontaneously buying a beautiful dress, checking a child's homework, preparing breakfast for your loved one - all of this you may not have overnight. That is why it is worth finding pleasure in your daily chores. After all, "tomorrow" may not come at all.
Step 3
Very often the past interferes with living here and now. Negative or very pleasant memories capture so much that life freezes. Can't forget the tragedy that keeps you from moving on? Do not hold back tears and emotions, allow yourself to experience it and enjoy life again. Your spouse no longer strews you with signs of attention, and you cannot forget the beauty of the romance of the old days? Try to find new joys in the present with your loved one.
Step 4
Imagine that you have only a few months left to live. How would you change your life? What would you do first? As a rule, this is precisely what is the main and most important thing that should be happening here and now. Understand the reasons why you don't do your favorite thing and put it off all the time.
Step 5
Try to find a job you love. If you spend most of your day doing a hateful occupation, dissatisfaction with today is inevitable.
