We live in the now and are avid readers and followers of Eckhart Tolle, Wayne Dyer and James Arthur Ray. We even own our personal copy of “The Secret.”
When Oprah Winfrey hosted the worldwide live webcast with Tolle to discuss his book, “A New Earth,” our family room was packed for 10 weeks with our friends.
Living in the now does not preclude planning, setting goals or pondering one’s future. In fact, living in the now is enriched by planning for the future. We experienced a “Harmonic Wealth” weekend with James Arthur Ray in Chicago and spent all of our time understanding the potential of our future and setting action to our goals. But when it came time for the moment, James was in it, totally focused on what was going on around him.
Contrary to the opinion of many, living in the now does not mean sitting under a tree until your dreams fall from the sky and land in your lap. Rather it is setting clear goals and then being present so you can be aware and open to opportunities when your intentions are knocking on your door. How many times have we heard about the person so focused on the future they did not see that what was happening right before their eyes was their dream come true, only in a slightly different form than imagined? They missed achieving their goals because they were never in the moment.
Perhaps the current onslaught of crises is not caused by living in the moment as John contends. Instead of being anywhere close to the present moment, people live in a future reality counting their pile of cash.
