RE: How can you KISS your life??
I always thought KISS stood for "Keep It Simple, Stupid!". You know, like in "it's the economy, stupid!"... Goes to show, it's never too late to learn something new :-)
Living in the moment, being present right now, being aware of the utter non-existence of both past and future, are all sounding good to me. But like you said: it's easier said than actually achieved.
Also, it shouldn't mean the same as not caring about the past and future; living in the moment shouldn't devolve into living for the moment (not that I think you meant that, just an addition ;-)).
All the other advice is welcome to in my book :- )
Thanks again for some wonderful foods for thoughts, @momogrow :-)
@ zyx066 - you are correct but I mentioned the definitions that I like most - :-). There are a few variants of the Navy's original with stupid. Absolutely the past and future are important and as i mentioned for lesson learnt and goals setting.
As I mentioned "stay in the here and now" - not live for only now. That would not be good advise. Staying present is about enjoying the moment. For instance a meeting with friends while checking one's smartphone every few minutes that is not "staying in the here and now".
I am happy you like the post - thank you.
That's beautiful, and I couldn't agree more :-) Being aware of each moment should save friendships too :-)
Haha - indeed. Otherwise if the smartphone is more important then maybe the friendship isn't. :-)
