Be Mindful of the Present
Mindfulness is an ability that helps you recognize the happiness
already present in your life. You don't have to wait years to find
happiness. It is already there; you just have to see it.
Being mindful makes you realize that you are alive and breathing.
It is when you are at peace with the present moment as it arrives. It
may not be what you expected or wanted, but you are content with
it.
This is perhaps one of the most important habits you’ll need to
infuse in your life if you want to make it more Zen. Because it lets
you be content with who you are and what you have, it can easily be
the happiest, most confident and safest place to be.
Plus, being mindful provides you hope that you can do so much
more with life. By far it is the one solution that’ll allow you to enjoy
life to the fullest. The simple trick lies in not forgetting why
something is important, and doing it consciously.
