I read my horoscope on the weekend and this is what I was informed:
“Be in the here and now and you are alive, you are living your life to the fullest. Living your life to the fullest isn’t about going out looking for the big shiny bright lights. Living your life to the fullest is you being in the here and now, it’s you being in the moment with the moment exactly as the moment is showing up. Far too often people are in need of changing the way their moments are showing up and this is simply not living.”
Upon reading this it is easy to feel very confronted – as a business owner, manager and leader – we are asked to be conscious of “what’s next….where are we going and what will we be doing” – and now I’m being challenged at a personal level to live in the “here and now”. So many conflicting messages – which one do you adopt or do you simply need to take a balanced approach?
I am opting for the balanced approach – there is a time to live in the here and now and then there is also a time to future pace to the next moments you will create. And through self awareness and insights into your environment you learn to know which is the strategy that will bring the best for you and mean you can live llife to its fullest.
