“‘One day I’ll make it.’  Is your goal taking up so much of your attention that you reduce the present moment to a means to an end?  Is it taking the joy out of your doing?  Are you waiting to start living?  If you develop such a mind pattern, no matter what you achieve or get, the present will never be good enough; the future will always seem better.  A perfect recipe for permanent dissatisfaction and nonfulfillment, don’t you agree?”

Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now (Page 85) (Read Matt’s Blog on this quote)
