The secret of change is to focus everything on creating what you can in the present, and letting yourself slip out of the past and the future.
How will we truly change?
I am not talking about the kind of change that lasts for just a couple of months and then we return to the same things we usually used to do. No, I am talking about that everlasting change that permits us to advance with our lives and leave our old ways behind. This is true change, change that will last forever. The secret is to commit everything you have in your life to building what you can in the moment.
The past will hold you down and the future will show you the greatest lie and mirage of a place where it all turns out. Both these imaginary places are stunningly deadly because they keep us from being in action in the moment. Even though we can go there in our heads, we have to avoid living in these places at all costs.
Change isn't going to be straightforward. Think about just how many people try and make huge changes the on the first of the year. Statistically about half of those who make New Years Resolutions fail by the middle of February. That disconnect is huge. So there has to be something astonishingly shattered with that technique.
So what can we actually do?
Focus upon one thing, each day, to make yourself a little bit better compared to the day before and do that for as long as you possibly can. Do not get obsessed with the quantum leap where everything changes all at one single point in time - it is a great lie. Focus on the daily chores you can perform and in time you will change more than you could possibly ever imagine.
Start the journey of change at this moment, one step at a time.
Don't wait.
