If you are depressed, you are living in the past

If you are anxious, you are living in the future

If you are at peace, you are living in the present

Life in the past

If you are constantly looking back in your life, you won't be able to see what's in front of you.

Many people feel regret or guilt about something that happened in the past.

Some miss the old days and complain about their current life.

In either way, it destroys your peace and makes you miserable.

You shouldn't worry about things you can't change.There's nothing you can do now. Accept the things that aren't in your hand and live on.

Life in the future

Thinking about times that haven't come yet results in anxiety.

You get scared of making wrong choices or put pressure on you to achieve something for your future self.

In the end you never get anything from your hard work because you already work for "the next future"

Life in the present

The present is the only reality.

You should face what's right in front of you and only think about how it will affect your current situation.

Go step by step, deal with now and in the next moment deal with "the next now". If you want to deal with too many things at once it will be overwhelming,so just take it easy and solve the problem that bothers you the most right now.

Enjoy the atmosphere and the moment. The simple things around you and what emotions you feel.

If it's hard for you, try going out in the nature and focus on yourself.Practice some meditation and learn to accept and appreciate.

Moderation

Past : It's okay to remember certain moments from the past and it's even important to do so, to improve your past mistakes. But don't hold onto it, let it go. Life's like water, always running, so don't try to stop it from flowing.

Future : It is a good thing to look forward to new experiences and have goals you want to accomplish. But look at those things as a motivation rather than a worry.Without them life may seem boring and not worthy, to some.

Thinking about past and future is not harmful, if you do it in moderation and for a positive reason.

Learn to live in the flow of nature
