- Self-Improvement
Everyone always advises taking the “long view” of life—that today’s troubles aren’t forever. There’s truth to that. But for people under stress, it can be unwieldy to think too far in the future. A focus on today—in fact, on this very minute—can unlock reservoirs of personal power. Can you breathe for a minute? Can you take a walk for 15 minutes? Can you work for an hour? Can you commit to the journey through one day, come what may? Of course you can.
