The Positive

Present And Potential

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished about a month ago 1 min read
Make every minute count

“While you were overthinking,

you missed everything worth feeling.”

Overthinking anything

will always cloud your judgement,

and quite simply

give you a headache.

When we are worrying about anything,

we miss so much that is going on

‘in the moment’.

Every moment holds potential,

and if we are overthinking anything,

we are missing out on the “joys”

that are right in front of us.

It is important

to focus our minds

on the positive,

on the present and

on the potential.

Every day is a chance

to embrace

what it has to offer.

In this way,

we are keeping Control of our day,

our minds and

our lives.

Look ahead to tomorrow

and leave the worries of yesterday

in the past.

Open that door to a happier life.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
