The Value of Living in the Present Moment

“Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry- all forms of fear- are caused by too much future, and not enough presence. Guilt, regret, resentment, grievances, sadness, bitterness and all forms of non-forgiveness are caused by too much past, and not enough presence.”

– Eckhart Tolle

 

“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.”

– Buddha

 

“Remember then: there is only one time that is important- Now! It is the most important time because it is the only time when we have any power.”

-Leo Tolstoy
