How to live here and now

We have heard the expression: "Happiness - it is from the word" now "." It seems that everything is simple: you need to be aware of every moment, enjoy every minute of pleasant and follow your heart
.
This is true. But it is easier said than done. Furthermore, not always clear, which means realize every moment. We are in the Website have decided to understand and translated an article writer and coach Mark Chernofa (Marc Chernoff), where he divides the task into components.

1. So, we assume that our only reality - is right here, right now! H3>

a healthy mind secret of soul and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, consciously and purposefully live . true A person capable to fully enjoy the moment, "here and now" - a real rich man. < Another place and time, in fact for us, unreal.

2. Negative thoughts are harmless as long as we do not believe in them h3>

We are not bad because of the idea itself, but because of the fact that it is our road. Even if the thought prevents us, still it is a pity to part with it -. Our well to bind to the thought means believing that it is - the truth, and do not require proof. Believe it. Sometimes for years.

3. No one will punish us for wrath; it is itself a punishment h3>

On his words or actions in anger, we almost always end up sorry. The trick is to time to realize what was happening, and "catch yourself hand» . Be angry and dissatisfied easily. But to do something useful in this condition is almost impossible. < Life is too precious and short to spend it in anger 4. Deep down we know what we stand for and how to treat yourself. We do not need others to have confirmed h3> To understand the world, it is necessary sometimes to look at it from a different angle. And yourself, too. Sometimes it comes in the mind disorder. Then we want someone to have lived - in front of us the same. Do not look for someone who will allow you to be yourself. < We do not need someone else's approval to be happy.

5. Everything happens twice: first in the head, and then in life h3>

If we do not come up with a goal, then so will stand still. Or is it to us come up with someone else. Let your inner compass, his sense of right, to guide your actions.

6. Solitude does not happen - we always have, we h3>

Even the closest people can not entirely put themselves in your place We will always be lonely, even if we are surrounded by. dozens of friends. < At the same time alone is not the case - we have we are

7.. To believe in one thing, and to do otherwise is unfair to yourself h3>

Do not break yourself, do not betray your dreams, do not try to explain every emotion with logic. Do not redraw its own unique "I" in accordance with the fashion. Take time to think and understand what you want really, with all my heart. In fact, we always know we have chosen is correct or not 8. Sometimes the right way, and sometimes light, and this is not always the same h3> When we find our way in life, the real fight is just beginning. Each step can be incredibly difficult, but it will be more interesting than to follow the "path of least resistance» A man does not give up the dream, because it gets old.; on the contrary, it grows old because abandons dreams.

9. To obtain have to sacrifice something h3>

When we realized what we want, it's time to think about what we are willing to sacrifice. It does not turn out to be in another country, did not survive the trip, sometimes tedious. There will be no dice on the press without fatigue and aching muscles. If you feel bad, ask yourself why. And if you suddenly realized that something dream which year, but nothing happens, and you will not step closer to the dream, perhaps the reason is that the in fact you do not want or are not prepared anything sacrifice.

10. Permanent vanity - the exact opposite of Life h3>

Invest in the right strength, a reasonable thing for us - is one thing. We spread because of all in a row - more. It's tempting to paint the day in minutes, write a long list of problems, and every now and then get distracted. It is tempting, but ultimately useless. < We need time to rest. Leave yourself some time. But the most important things to do still better plan. However, this does not mean you have to strictly follow the schedule. We need a basis in order to know what to do, and you need time to relax without fuss.

11. The more we try to control everything, the less enjoy life h3>

Do not make thousands of plans. Work on your goal, but be flexible, like a reed in the wind. Not everything always goes according to plan. For example, the best moments in life happen suddenly. But the biggest regret is when you can not fulfill the plans. Sometimes you just need to relax, take a deep breath and consciously let everything take its course.

12. If completely tired, it's time to relax and enjoy the fact that there are already h3>

The forces should be regularly restored. Relax as you like - a walk in the park, knit socks, cook. Or simply Stay alone, listening to himself. And do not at this point more than anything. Take time to relax from the hustle to pause and let the world spin on their own, without us -. Is perfectly normal. Otherwise, we will gradually burn up

Finally h3> The biggest enemy of conscious life and deep, soothing thoughts -. It is permanent employment. We all have deadlines and urgent business, but few vital always something to do, do and do. And as a result we can regret is that too much of a fuss and so little time is taken to simply enjoy the moment.

After all, it did not need a special occasion.
