May I learn to live in the present
“If you are depressed you are living in the past.
If you are anxious you are living in the future.
If you are at peace you are living in the present.”
― Lao Tzu
In 2020, I really want to practice learning to live in the present. I’ve been working on it for a few months but, like most things in life, it takes practice. One thing that has helped me is recognizing my thought patterns. The minute I start feeling anxious about the present or troubled about the past I try to stop the cycle in my head. I ask myself, “is this something you can change now?” If there is nothing I can do at the present moment, I try to let the thought go to rest in my brain and return back to the present. Again, it’s a practice. My hope is the more I keep doing it, the more I’m able to be present in life.
My job also makes it difficult to be present. As much as I love sharing each and every moment with you, it sometimes takes a toll. I forget to actually enjoy what I’m doing. I have trouble focusing on conversations because my eyes are wandering for beautiful backdrops. And I’m constantly thinking about what I’m going to post next, whether it’s during “working hours” or on vacation.
Last year, I really tried to be more present. I would take photos and videos then put my phone away and post later. But I definitely want to learn new tools this year. So if you have any tips that have worked for you in terms of learning to live in the present, please do share!
“Happiness, not in another place,
but this place
not for another hour,
but for this hour.”
—Walt Whitman

Love your site, and advice, and photos and creativity!
Have u covered how we all need to have a mental health day, and maybe a photoshoot of how that would look? No fancy dress, just casual comfy clothes, curled up with a cup of tea, good book, dog/cat by your side, or a nice cozy fire, and phone unplugged /off. Ahhh, silence is golden. ❤️📚☕️ 🐈🌻🌞🌈☀️

I think being on social media so much can cause all kinds of depression issues, I’m so sorry you are struggling but that takes courage to share! Putting your phone down can help a lot. I also really like inspirational quotes and maybe you can add a section or incorporate more to your page! At one point I started collecting a bunch when I was using Pinterest and was going to make something with them but never did!
I saw someone already wrote my original idea, I was going to say you should add something about hair. There are so many trends with colors and styles so it can be really fun!

The orange is beautiful. I’d love to see some cute, every day wear dresses. They’re not so easy to find, long enough to be comfortable, short enough to be stylish.

Learning to live in the present is actually the truth of life. But don’t forget about support in education https://paysomeonetowritemy.com it will help you become more productive and establish full-fledged contacts in education assistance.

When you spend all your time studying, it is difficult to live in the present. Although education is important and important, in some cases it is worth giving yourself a break and delegating various tasks. A service like https://phdify.com/dissertation-methodology will be more than relevant for those who are at the stage of writing a dissertation, so I recommend learning more about these services.
