Do not wish your days and months away, rather develop the will to be there here and now
Did it happen to you to be so much excited by a future event, that you wished to accelerate time and totally wished the remaining days away?
It probably happened to you. It has happened to me and the final result was disappointment!
While I do consider it to be highly positive for any of us to project ourselves in a happy expectation of the future, I also think that it can be quite dangerous when this future obliterates your present.
No matter what is happening right now in your life, no matter if you like it or dislike it, it is ESSENTIAL for you TO BE HERE AND NOW.
A few years ago, I remember myself being looking forward to a future move with such an intensity that I really wished myself away, a few months in advance. There was no place for the present any more and I was talking about this future so much that my entourage was even getting tired of it. In the end, when I reached the so much expected moment, things didn t turn out the way I expected them and I had to deal with loads of difficulties.
But the three preceding months had vanished and i had no benefit of them at ALL.
Looking back at the time I had invested in looking for my "better" future made me bitter for a while.
Do you get my point? There is always a PERFECT TIMING in the Universe. You notice it when you grow plants in your garden or when you water them in your apartment. Wanting to accelerate things before time is like forcing the Universe for PREMATURE CREATION: it often leads to accidents and disappoitment.
I know patience is a virtue we all need to let grow like a beautiful flower, so beautiful surprises will unfold on time.
Be here-now. Be present. The present is really worth living, and even if there are details you dislike in the now, take time to FOCUS ON THE BRIGHT SIDE of your life. Enjoy each moment, for it is a precious gift. The more you will be focused on each single second, the faster time will fly.
Time only seems long to the ones who are bored or who spend their whole time complaining. ALLOW your PRESENT TO BE GREAT AND YOUR FUTURE WILL EVEN BE GREATER!
I gathered more tips in my self-help book, Unwrap Your Present.
