I’ve had a long held belief that to have something to look forward to is the key (well, maybe one of the keys) to a happier life.
I know, I know, this blog is largely about living in the present and focusing on those joyous things right in front of you this very moment … but while being in the present is a good thing – sometimes the ‘now’ can at times be a place of boredom, frustration and in fact a space we’d rather not be in … mmmm!
So, what to do? … pretty simple actually – just create something to look forward to. Doesn’t have to be a world trip or a new relationship .. could just be a sleep in on Saturday morning, a coffee with a friend or a guilty pleasure (I’m thinking a capricciosa with all the trimmings here people!!) .
By giving ourselves something fun/interesting/restful/positive to anticipate in the future, we can create a temporary or even longer motivation to tolerate the shite we might be facing into today, this week or even this year!
