Make it easy on yourself and live life day by day, moment to moment.

If you have something to do, perfect, do it, enjoy it, and if you have nothing to do, perfect, take some time to relax and do nothing. Let that feeling of relief, of yay always be the most dominant feeling no matter what you are doing.

Gratitude really opens the door. Love for life opens the door. And it doesn’t necessarily mean going on adventures every day, it means appreciating what is already there. You don’t need to sit repeating mantras and affirmations all day, you just need to be aware of what you are thinking and feeling in the moment and if you are down on yourself or another, then it is the perfect time to look upward to the source of all your good, strength, clarity.

Make a commitment to keep your eyes looking upward, to keep your thoughts looking upward, especially when you find yourself in thought. You know, life is in the moment. Whatever you are doing, focus on that. Give thanks to that. The less you think about tomorrow, the less you think about your problems or others, the more you allow yourself to be present in the moment. 

Develop a love for life, for being alive, for having an experience at all. Develop a love for all you do, no matter how mundane, even if it is doing the dishes, always with the thought it is perfect and it is a perfect time to do so, and also with the feeling of enjoyment and relief. Life is to be lived, experienced, savored, moment to moment. Don’t make it hard on yourself.

Make a promise, today no matter where I am, it is my intention to be in the moment, to enjoy the moment in its fullness and perfection because Love is in the moment and if I’m not feeling love, then I’m not in the moment.
