TIL

It is sad to say but life moves so quickly. Have you ever come to the end of the day and felt like it went by in a blink of an eye? Well, that’s because time waits for no one. So where does that leave you? Well, this means that you need to live in the moment more. Yes, that seems like the most obvious thing to say, however, people don’t really know how to live in the moment or why they should. You see, it can be very easy to forget what happened throughout your day and that’s because you were so preoccupied with other things. Now being busy is normal, but you need to make time to live in the moment.

Life is all about making memories and capturing moments. However, when doing so you can actually miss things. Although you think it, you aren’t really living in the moment while snapping pictures on Instagram. This is because you are so focused on capturing the perfect picture and creating the best caption. Living in the moment means that you are totally unplugged and focused on what you are currently doing. Now we know that being without your phone for an entire day can sometimes be a bit unrealistic.

So instead, you should block out the time. You can live without your phone for a couple of hours at a time. Now you don’t have to be doing anything exciting or social to live in the moment. Instead, you should be doing something as simple as reading. Living in the moment while reading means that you are taking in everything that you need to. You will even notice that you tend to remember everything you read. See, living in the moment allows you to fully amerce yourself in what is happening in front of you.
