I have slowly realized that I was born with a unique gift of living in the here and now. Not everyone lives in the moment. I began to observe the crippling effects of living in the past or the future in the people around me. I had no idea that I was instinctively responding to the present moment as a part of my personality.
I like to think of the way I approach life as moving one checker at a time. Sometimes you’re in a situation that is so disturbing that you can’t see how weaving one loop will change it. It is at that moment that you’re lost. I say, “Never stop!” My response in a crisis situation is simply to advance my situation. Keep weaving and keep weaving until you get past it. You will get past it. Sometimes I just move an inch, sometimes I move backwards or sideways, but I just keep moving, weaving, advancing and believing in the realistic positive outcome.
Stay in the present, and your enterprise, your important project into which you have invested so much of yourself and your money has a much better chance of succeeding. The point is it isn’t about being something but doing something. Mickey Mantle would never have been fast enough to hit the ball if he had been thinking about it.
