Focus on The Present, not The Past or The Future

Recently I have been inclined to reading. I admit that I'm a slow reader but I'm at my 4th book this year. Do you know of Johnson Spencer who wrote the book "Who Moved My Cheese?" Yes, I'm reading his book called "The Present"
Present can be meant as a gift or now, depend on how you look at it. But when you put them together, there's another meaning to it.
"If you take today as a gift and enjoy your day now, right now, you will find more happiness in life"
Most people don't enjoy their life b'cos they don't focus on The Present. Many people live in The Past, still pondering things that they might have regretted, or live in The Future always striving so hard in wanting to achieve this and that. In the nutshell, living in the past and future will not give you the ultimate happiness.
Some will argue, "Isn't it true that we have to set goals so that there's more meaning and motivation in life?" Forget about motivation to achieve your goals. Try this. "If you fail to achieve your goals, which is The Future, what will you do?" The answer is very simple "Work towards your goal everyday and focus on The Present will help you to achieve it easier" Stress or no stress? It's easier when you have less stress.
Some will say, "What about The Past when my mentor told us to take them as a learning experience?" I will say "Take them as a learning experience and move on in life la, why are you still staring at me?" :p
Morale of the story - Learn from The Past and focus on The Present. What about The Future? We can talk about it in The Future so why ponder now? haha
Humorous way of sharing meaningful lessons... hope it works well for everyone
