Now, before our episode begins, here's a quick word from today's sponsors.
How often do we let our minds wander into the future?
Worrying about what might happen tomorrow, next week, or even years.
years from now. We spend so much time and energy fretting about things that haven't even happened
yet. And in doing so, we rob ourselves of the joy that can be found in the here and now.
My friend, we can't let tomorrow's worries ruin today's peace. Look, as helpful and inspiring
as it can be to plan for and dream about the future, we have to keep it.
that mindset in balance, because we don't live tomorrow. We only live today.
Happiness isn't on loan from your future self. It's found by your current self.
So let's put this kind of positive mindset focused on the present into practice.
And we'll do that just by taking a second to pause. So wherever you're at, find a comfortable
position. Allow yourself to relax and just mentally set aside everything else for the next two minutes or so.
Everything will still be there when you're done. And if you'd like, you can close your eyes.
Encourage you just to narrow your focus on yourself right now. How does your breath feel?
Can you notice the intricacies of each one? How does your body feel? Do you notice anywhere that you're
tense, and if so, can you let go and relax?
I'm going to gently fade in some nature sounds.
So just take this moment to enjoy a little peace and quiet here today
in a calming, relaxing audio atmosphere.
And not to worry about anything else.
If your mind wanders, that's okay.
Just bring it back.
Use the nature sounds as an anchor.
You have nothing to worry about and nothing to do in this moment.
So give yourself the opportunity to enjoy it.
You enjoyed that moment of peace and serenity.
Let's take one more deep breath.
Inhale.
Fill all the way up.
Deepest breath you've taken yet today.
And then exhale, release.
And if you had your eyes closed, then you could take a second just to gather yourself,
reopen them, and come out of that whenever you're ready.
My friend, we are all very good at borrowing stress from the future.
We spend so much energy fretting about what-ifs, things that may never even come to pass.
Imagine the wasted adventures, the laughs we've missed out on,
The opportunities brushed aside because we were too busy rehearsing potential problems and failures in our minds.
We all do this, myself included, so I say this to you as much as I say it to myself.
A better future doesn't start tomorrow.
It starts today.
This day is a gift, a precious, fleeting chance to experience life in all its fullness.
Let's not waste it by living in the shadow of an uncertain tomorrow.
And look, I'm not saying you should ignore all future goals and ambitions
or turn a blind eye to an obvious problem on the horizon.
No, no, no.
Planning for and creating a better future is a fantastic thing to do.
But we have to keep it in perspective.
As with all things, there's a balance to be.
be struck. No matter how much we worry or plan, we never know for sure what tomorrow will bring.
So why waste today's precious moments on something that may never even come to pass?
Plus, if we want to create a better future, the only time we can affect change is in the present.
By letting go of tomorrow's worries and living fully today, you free yourself. You free yourself.
from unnecessary stress and anxiety,
you open yourself up to new experiences and opportunities
that you may have otherwise missed.
And best of all, you give yourself the gift of peace.
So why not start here and now?
Take a deep breath and let go of those worries
that just aren't serving you.
Focus on today and all the beauty it holds.
By doing so, you allow yourself to find happiness in the present.
So don't let tomorrow's worries ruin today's peace.
Live this day fully.
Because after all, it might be the day when everything changes for the better.
And you'd never know unless you gave it a chance.
Well, that's all for now.
Thanks so much for choosing to be here, tuning in, and joining me.
me, I always love your company.
If you have a second before you go, then I love it if you left a comment or review, and just
let me know what you think about the show.
I hope to see you back here soon on Wake Me Up, and until next time, go out and have an absolutely
fantastic day.
