DAY THIRTY FIVE ~ MEETING THIRTY FIVE
STAYING IN THE MOMENT
This has been brought up to me quite a few times in my recovery process so far. I tend to live in the past an awful lot. Now granted, my past does need some serious consideration, but I cannot continue to live in it and be defined by it. My past is only going to continue to harm me if I allow it to run my life. This works going in the other direction also. If I spend too much time worrying about what might or could happen, where is that going to get me? Absolutely nowhere!
I also have a problem with making lists. Now, this may not seem like too much of a problem to you, but when I am worrying about getting everything on that list done, I am not living in the moment. I am too worried about what I need to get done. I stress myself out worrying about if I am getting it done fast enough, perfect enough or if I will get it done at all. I create so much of my own stress by not staying in the moment.
Until tomorrow ~
I'm Kim
