Slow Down And Live In Your Now

by Kris Pitcher

We're in a hurry. Get there fast is the name of the game in all aspects of our lives. If it's not super fast, it's way too slow. This is true for certain with our fitness goals.

The challenge with being in a hurry is you're not where you are. Huh? There's a lot to be said for being in the moment. You are where you are. In life, in your professional work...in your jeans. It takes time to get better, to meet our goals, to accomplish something big.

Looking to the future is important. But not at the expense of living your life right now. Being able to be happy where you are is the difference between the people who walk around with a smile on their face - seeing the world through eyes of opportunity. And those who complain because their McDonald's coffee is too hot. Let. It. Cool. Down.

If you're willing to slow down and do what you need to do, you'll be surprised that you'll begin to meet your goals - and feel a sense of happiness. Why? Because you're living your now. Take a step back from the rush of your life, don't be in such a hurry...slow down and be where you are.
