    “The belief that there is some future moment more worth our presence than the one we’re in right now is why we miss our lives.”

      “Be attentive to the present. Only in the present time can we understand eternity.”

      Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, via A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 334)

        “One of the major ways to open yourself to the present so that it is a fresh and vibrant experience is to be intentional about not reacting impulsively to life, but instead slowing things down so that you have more time to align yourself with the actions that feel most genuine to who you are now instead of who you were in the past.”

          “To understand and live now, there must be dying to everything of yesterday. Die continually to every newly gained experience—be in a state of choiceless awareness of WHAT IS.”

          Bruce Lee, Striking Thoughts (Page 14)

            “We are always in a process of becoming and NOTHING is fixed. Have no rigid system in you, and you’ll be flexible to change with the ever changing. OPEN yourself and flow, my friend. Flow in the TOTAL OPENNESS OF THE LIVING MOMENT. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Moving, be like water. Still, be like a mirror. Respond like an echo.”

            Bruce Lee, Striking Thoughts (Page 13)

              “wanting always interrupts being.”

                “Be attentive to what you do; never consider anything unworthy of your attention.”

                Confucius, A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 105)
