Jack Canfield's tips for remaining present were helpful and appreciated. One which I feel like I do well is #6 setting aside a time every day to focus and reflect on the present moment. I do this every night after I put my kids to sleep. I reflect on the day and the moments which I was most thankful for, the moments that made me happy to be alive. The tip that I feel like I need to work on is #4: Being aware of my thoughts. Often I feel overwhelmed because of where my mind takes me. I would like to be able to recognize my thoughts and find relief in putting some aside, rather than allow them to make me more emotional.
