1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: I love asking questions. Well, the reason why is because

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,240
the fund begins when you start researching for answers such as,

3
00:00:06,639 --> 00:00:10,320
why are so many people afraid to live right here

4
00:00:10,359 --> 00:00:14,080
in the presence of now? Plus how can we learn

5
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,760
to become better at being in the presence of now?

6
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,000
My name is Errow. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf.

7
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,160
That means I stand on the sidelines and do nothing

8
00:00:22,199 --> 00:00:25,600
but watch, listen, study, then activate. I call it the

9
00:00:25,679 --> 00:00:28,920
daily mess, a chronological walk through an everyday world. Yeah,

10
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,240
it's my morning pages as a receiver of thoughts and ideas.

11
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,320
We as people tend to throw it to the side

12
00:00:34,359 --> 00:00:37,320
because we think we're going to deal with it later on. Well,

13
00:00:37,359 --> 00:00:39,520
when a subject arrives inside of me, I know it's

14
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,079
time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal,

15
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,240
but by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This

16
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,880
is the daily mess. Why are so many people afraid

17
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,640
to live in the present place of right now? This

18
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:57,920
truly is connected to enormous psychological reasons, the fear of

19
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,399
the unknown. Somebody see it as a huge negative which

20
00:01:01,479 --> 00:01:05,840
triggers all kinds of anxiety. It instantly throws people into

21
00:01:05,879 --> 00:01:09,359
a past they can't change. But to them, it doesn't matter,

22
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,680
it's something they know. Number two, people stay away from

23
00:01:13,719 --> 00:01:16,680
the present because of a physical attachment to the past,

24
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,959
from memories to regrets, more importantly, expectations. Living in the

25
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,680
past while trying to move forward into the future causes

26
00:01:24,719 --> 00:01:28,159
a huge loss of focus. We are living in a

27
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,799
world that has so many distractions, and it's taking place

28
00:01:31,879 --> 00:01:36,079
in every second that we breathe. The world glorifies the

29
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,400
physical act of busyness and productivity, which makes it very

30
00:01:40,439 --> 00:01:44,719
difficult to experience stillness and self reflection. Another reason why

31
00:01:44,799 --> 00:01:47,400
people elect to stay free of living in the present

32
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,000
is their resistance to reality. It's easier for them to

33
00:01:52,439 --> 00:01:56,640
fantasize with something they already know. But but, but, but

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,840
but Running from your emotions will deepen your Hey, coming

35
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,280
up next, So, what's the best way to learn how

36
00:02:05,519 --> 00:02:11,000
to live in the presence of all things right now? Hey,

37
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,479
thanks for coming back to the daily mess. What's the

38
00:02:13,479 --> 00:02:16,400
best way to get over or get through your fear

39
00:02:16,479 --> 00:02:20,719
of being present in all things right now? Mindfulness? Oh,

40
00:02:20,759 --> 00:02:24,840
you've heard a lot about that. Mindfulness, meditation and the

41
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:29,400
act of truly deep breathing. It sounds and feels so stupid.

42
00:02:29,879 --> 00:02:33,360
But it's not. It really does work, and it invites

43
00:02:33,439 --> 00:02:38,759
peace to your present place of right now. Mindfulness reduces stress, anxiety,

44
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,520
and depression. Also, while dealing with the present, learn how

45
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,240
to reframe your negative thinking. I do something I call

46
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:52,159
defragging every single day and night, putting my emotions on

47
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,960
a page to see it, not just think about it,

48
00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:57,560
but to physically put my hands on it. And then

49
00:02:57,719 --> 00:03:01,159
I'll ask questions and then question answers. Learning how to

50
00:03:01,199 --> 00:03:05,520
focus on what you cannot control. The goal seems really heavy, right,

51
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,680
but when you begin to see the path, you'll understand

52
00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:12,400
why this is so important. It's time to manage your

53
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,400
responses to uncertainty. Well, what about gratitude? How often do

54
00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:20,280
you invest in saying hey, thanks? As evil as this

55
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,400
world continues to become, there are amazing amounts of brilliant

56
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,840
people that are very close to you and others. Share

57
00:03:27,879 --> 00:03:32,520
with them your compassion, your thank you. Stop taking advantage

58
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,000
of them. If they give you something, give something back.

59
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,719
Be in a moment of light when everything else feels

60
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:42,680
like it's in the dark. I'm marrow and that's the

61
00:03:42,759 --> 00:03:43,400
daily mess.
