I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.
Yesterday - The Present Is All We Possess
I went golfing this morning. One of the things the game is teaching me is that I have to live in the moment. I can’t worry about past shorts or future ones. What I have is this shot right here and now. Getting into that mindset really helped me today. I beat my best round of golf by one stroke. Now that the round is over I can enjoy it for that moment and then I move on to this week, where I’ll work on some stuff and try to improve upon it. Expecting to improve can have it’s own downfall though. I could shoot my worst round next week. It’s happened before after setting my previous best. That’s why I’m focusing on the present here and now and not past or future outcomes.
Today - That Sacred Part Of You
Understanding is a key part of our existence. I’m learning to take that as something not to under appreciate.
