Monday motivation
“Love the moment and the energy of that moment will spread beyond all boundaries.”
-Corita Kent
Have you ever looked back on an experience in your life and wished you had spent more time appreciating it instead of just focusing on what you were moving on to right afterward? Sometimes we become so focused on new opportunities and goals that the value of the present moment is already overlooked while we’re still in it. While it’s beneficial to look toward the future and work for improvement and goals, at the same time it’s important to live in the present and recognize the immense opportunity each moment brings. The future is an exciting and wonderful thing to look forward to, but remember that even the most seemingly ordinary day is still part of your path. Each moment holds just as much opportunity to be a highlight along the way.
Maybe your day just feels average and uninteresting, or you’re about to do another barre or center but have decided to not really put much effort into it. Think of all the opportunities you could miss if each moment is spent just getting to the next one instead of on challenging yourself to grow and exist in the present. By putting love and energy into each moment, you’re not only making a conscious decision to live your day to the fullest, you’re also paving your journey with countless moments of opportunity.
Wherever you are, try taking a moment to decide to live in the present moment. By applying your wholehearted energy and love to where you are right now and recognizing the value in each moment, even the most seemingly average days can become incredible possibilities.
Have a wonderful and inspired week!
