Race for now*


Some days you just feel like you can't keep going. The race is too long, the training is too hard, you are just not equipped to continue. It feels as though you have done everything incorrectly, fumbled and fraudulently gotten to the point you are now and any day you will drop the ball and be found out for what you really are.... unworthy. It is hard to chase your dreams, push for your goals, and give up the now for the later.

Some days you get too caught up in the should haves, the what ifs, the could have beens. You forget what you are worth, what you can accomplish, where you can go.

Live in the moment. Stop, breathe, and be right here, right now. Look around you... find something to be thankful for. Become ultra present in the now, not thinking about tomorrow, not thinking about later... just be. Feel your heart beat. Hear the wind blow. Take your shoes off and walk in the soft grass. You're alive. If your journey was over, you wouldn't be. As long as you are, use it, do it, be it, chase it, achieve it, enjoy it, feel it, embrace it, be thankful for it....

All you have is now.*
