The present moment contains past and future. The secret of transformation, is in the way we handle this very moment.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
No matter what the future holds, whether you perceive what comes as good or bad, it will be determined by how you respond to things today.
Our response is activated by the lens from which we choose to see, and as long as we choose to see through that lens, we will act upon that story and experience similar things in the future. Different action through the same lens doesn’t yield different experiences; just a different story. Different action through a different lens does.
If you don’t like what you see, it may be time to shift that lens. The work here is in observing how you respond to things because the way you respond will tell you everything you need to know about yourself, and your Self is the trajectory.
