Mark Twain was a funny guy. He had great insight into human personality, too, which is maybe why he was so funny. He’d have been a great MLM sponsor. One thing in particular he said, I have found to be SO true in SO many people I talk with:

“I have been through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened.”

Man, isn’t that the truth! It seems most of the people on this planet spend a significant portion of their lives pouting … or worrying … or actually even 100% insanely hysterical over … stuff that never actually happens.

Look. Planning for the future is important. And each day you should spend a few minutes picturing in your mind what that better future will look like, in great detail.

But other than that, your sanity depends on living in the present moment. Aside from those few moments of positive visualization every day, right now is where you always are. To worry or fret over the future for even 1 minute a day is a crime, in my opinion.

But almost every day, I talk to people who have mastered that neurotic art.

They let past problems and future concerns dominate their present moments. Result? Anxiety, frustration, depression, hopelessness. Worse, because of all this worry about stuff which mostly will never actually happen, they either postpone or spend no time actually planning their own happiness and goals.

This is nuts!

And even those who have actually planned out a realistic plan to achieve happiness and other goals … if they spend time every day focusing on some negative that may happen at some time in the future … then they have no hope of ever reaching their dreams.

The clock is ticking. Your time in this life is running out. Your time is way too precious to spend it focusing on what won’t work or what bad things might happen. Your kids are growing up, family members are moving away and dying, and you’re getting a little long in the tooth, yourself. Your body doesn’t move quite the same way it did when you were 20.

Use those minutes wisely, or your MLM dreams … and all your other dreams … will slip out of reach.

Today is not a dress rehearsal. It’s the actual production, in full view of the audience. The truth is, you may not even be here for tomorrow’s show. YOU may be cancelled at any time, with no prior notice.

All you can control is today, so focus on that.

Your friends for life,
