The Power of the Present Moment

 

The present moment is where all power lies

The power you possess is not in the future and nor is it in the past, when we talk about all things relative to our external circumstances, behaviour, mindset and what we want to manifest. All that matters is what you are thinking, feeling and doing right now. For this very present moment dictates the future.

What you are doing right now echoes on into eternity

As mentioned before, it's not just about what we are doing right now, it's also about the way we think and how we feel. If we would think reckless or low vibrational thoughts, then our immediate future reality will be a direct reflection and continuation of that, if we don't course correct ourselves and change direction. It's only when we take our energy away from what's not beneficial to us and focus on what is, instead of trying to create our future from past negative experiences, that we can create a life we truly desire.

The present moment is the only moment that exists

The present moment is the only moment that really exists and thus the only moment that we can use to create a desirable future outcome. This goes to say, the past nor the future áctually exist; rather they are made up constructs to measure time in physical reality. "Now" is always the only moment that exists and will ever exist.

Whatever we project at a certain time into the future, will happen exactly at that time in space

People who live from a linear time standpoint, perceive life and circumstances through the lense of "past, present and future". Whatever they wish to experience in the future, they project within the mind somewhere out into the future, not realizing that their present state and thus subconscious beliefs are dictating the specific timing of those events.

If on the other hand we would embody the state, the feelings, attitude and purposely think the thoughts of what we would like to experience, right now in the present moment, expecting or intenting our desire to happen as immediate as possible - then our manifestation can happen almost instantaneously.

The art is to stay present at all times

When we are present, it's easier to observe more carefully our state of consciousness before reacting to outside conditions or unwanted thoughts. To remain present is to live a more peaceful, stress-free, intentional and overall happier life. Manifestation becomes much easier because we are creating from how we think, feel and act, in the present.

Drawing our energy back to the present

If we are mindful to think and feel good in the present and we can continuously draw our energy back to the present moment, then we are capable to manifest the life we want. When our attention and energy often wanders to something we don't want, it's important to become aware and take action to make it habitual to pull our energy back and focus on what we do want.

We can never focus on two things at the exact same time

If we make it a habit to draw our energy back every time we focus on something that doesn't benefit us, we are starting to live life more from the present moment and this is where your ultimate power lies as a creator. Living in the now is crucial for anyone who wants to master and own their life. Once we get the hang of living life in the now, we become more thoughtful of how and what we think and since thoughts become things, we have accessed the greatest potential to create a life which fulfills our truest hopes, desires and dreams.
