The past does not dictate the future, our only point of power is in the present

I often hear people talking about what happened in the past and then what is going to happen in the future and worrying about both of them. The only thing you can influence is what you are doing now - in the present, so worrying about things you can do nothing about is a real waste of time and energy. It is good to give 100% focus and attention to what you are doing; in shamanism we call this "being present"

As Mark Twain said "I have been through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened"
