It’s Only A Tiny Little Minute But Eternity Is In It


By John Lee

Someone asked me the other day, “How much time do you spend in the present? Really in the present?”

It sounded like a dumb question, at first. But then I started to consider it more seriously.

And I realized that – like the majority of people – most of my waking moments are spent thinking about the past, often comparing what I believe is happening to me right now with previous experiences, good or bad.

Or my mind is focused on the future, either concerning myself with a situation that may or may not come about or dreaming about the changes I would like to see in my life.

If it’s the former, I often find myself indulging in an irrational fear about the future.

What was it that Zig Ziglar said about ‘fear’ and what the individual letters stand for? 'False Evidence Appearing Real'?

Bob Proctor
He certainly wasn’t wrong. Ask yourself how many times something you worried about actually came to pass – at least to the extent you anticipated. Probably quite rarely.

So all we really have is the present. This is the ONLY moment that we can TRULY influence. The past is gone and the future’s still to come.

It follows, then, that we need to make the most of every single minute… which is the subject of the free video you can access below by the inimitable Bob Proctor.

In it, he covers the power of the present moment, a highly effective lesson he was taught by one of his personal mentors – the late, great Earl Nightingale – and how we can all be much more productive, every day of our lives.
