Secret #4 Live the Moment.

Mindfulnes, being present in the moment, being awake, noticing what is going on, being rather than thinking.
I've talked a lot about this in the blog, instead of thinking everything will be fine once you've done whatever, notice that everything is fine now. You can't do anything about the past so worrying about it is useless. You can't do anything about the future that isn't happening now, so concentrate on now and the future will take care of itself.
This is the only part of the book that has a practical suggestion on how to put these secrets into your life, and in this case it is meditation, which certainly does work to become less worried about the past and future and more peacefully aware of the present.
