I think this is one of the things about myself that I want to change. I want to really be present in the moment. I also don't want to be so worried about tomorrow (or next month, or next year) that I'm not enjoying today. Does anybody have a book/article recommendation that deals with this?

If you want to be present, first step its respecting your thoughts, they need to be like this at this time....thats the only way they will get out, its a self defense mechanism, when you cut your finger, you have pain...this is the same, be present and accept them, they will eventually change, the main problem its when we try everything to avoid them...then the healing process doesn't occur and they will appear again in similar situations...it hurts I know but this is the only way to deal with the pain and the thoughts, accepting them and appreciating them....

There is no magic pill here wink sorry it svcks but this is the process...

When the student its ready, the teacher will appear...
Even after all this time the sun never says to the Earth, "You owe me."
Look what happens with a love like that,It lights the whole sky.
