When you are in an unpleasant situation, you have three choices, leave the situation, change it, or accept it completely. Often we spend time either stuck in the past or anxious about a future that we have no control over. At the same time, we also hope that our lives can be happier even though we don't know how. By living in the moment, you will find happiness and your full self.
In fact, the most important moment in life is the present moment. Whenever you feel something, that feeling you experience in the present moment. If you realize it, then you will realize that the past is nothing more than a collection of present moments that have passed and the future is just a collection of present moments waiting to be present in your life. For example, When we want to go on vacation, we think about getting there quickly. Until you forget to enjoy while the journey to get there with friends or family.
There is no benefit in worrying about the future or living in the past, but there are many benefits to living in the present. For instance, you get a challenging task, such as doing homework. Often, this seems too big and complicated to achieve. If you're worried about how much work you have to do or regret why you didn't start from a little, these two things won't change the reality you're living in right now. However, if you try to work on each part of the homework one by one, then it will be easier for you to complete it.
Accepting means you no longer spend time wishing things were different. Keep in mind, focusing on your present life doesn't mean you're living a passive life. For instance, if you are stuck in the mud, it does not mean that you are silent and accept this situation. However, you can try, without panicking, to free yourself from the mud. You will see the world not as a place where there are endless problems, but you will see the world as a situation that you can control and you can solve one by one. Don't mourn the past, don't worry about the future. The life you have is only in this time, this moment.
