Learning to Be Present Now

Good stuff from Michael Hyatt…

“This is a particularly powerful reminder for me. I seem to be always living in the future. I’m either planning my next big project or worried about how it’s will turn out.

But this them reminds me that all I really have is now. The past is gone. The future is not guaranteed. This moment is a gift.

Maybe that’s why it’s called “the present.”

Every now and then we get a reminder about how fragile life is. We just can’t take it for granted. Each moment is precious.” Go to the source for more: Learning to Be Present Now | Michael Hyatt.

…on One Day at a Time

“Arc you always this happy?” I asked my favorite clerk at the grocery store.

“I am today,” he said.

Doing anything forever – even being happy – can seem like too much. The good news is that we don’t have to do anything forever. Just today.

Challenge: The hardest part about taking life one day at a time is remembering that the present moment is all we have.” via May 10.

The question is…

“The question isn’t who is going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me.” ~ Ayn Rand

Guess what’s reported to be the number one contributor to happiness?

Money? No.

Good looks? Nope.

Popularity? Still nope.

A hot sex life? Guess again!

According to a report by The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, all these mentioned life goodies were topped by the biggest life goodie of them all: “autonomy” – defined as”the feeling that your life – its activities and habits — are self-chosen and self-endorsed.”

An unlikely challenger ends the Beatles’ reign atop the U.S. pop charts; This Day in History

“Following the ascension of “I Wanna Hold Your Hand” to #1 in early February, the Beatles held the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for three and a half solid months—longer than any popular artist before or since. Over the course of those months, the Fab Four earned three consecutive #1 singles (a record); held all five spots in the top five in early April (a record); and had a total of 14 songs in the Billboard Hot 100 in mid-April (yet another record). But just when it seemed that no homegrown act would ever stand up to the British invaders, one of least likely American stars imaginable proved himself equal to the task. On May 9, 1964, the great Louis Armstrong, age 63, broke the Beatles’ stranglehold on the U.S. pop charts with the #1 hit “Hello Dolly.”” via An unlikely challenger ends the Beatles’ reign atop the U.S. pop charts — History.com This Day in History — 5/9/1964.
