I constantly hear people talk about how they would love to let go of their attachments, not so much to things, but to their expectations. “If only I didn’t worry so much about how things will turn out, I’d feel a lot less anxious,” is a common cry.

Letting go is easier said than done, especially if hanging on is a lifelong habit. And changing such habits doesn’t come without a certain amount of attention and work. The work is worth it, though. At the end of a few coaching sessions, or during one of our Emotional Fitness courses, I almost always hear somebody give themselves a gift of the present.

Focusing on what is happening now, on what you are feeling now, on what is important now, is a wonderful and releasing gift to yourself and to everyone else, for they will certainly benefit from your attention in the moment. After all, now is the only time we have, so it may as well have your full attention.

In Peace and Love
