He's helping me a lot to control my anxiety. That's why I get up earlier every day and take my time paying attention to the things I do before I go to work. Getting up, feeding my pets, taking a shower, getting dressed with the clothes I have already chosen to wear the night before. Enjoying my cup of coffee, and doing all this without thinking about work. Then, with plenty of time, I get in my truck and enjoy the driving to work. I really do not think about how I think my day is going to be when I'm at work. I don't care about it. I leave that until I'm already there and just taking things as they come. This eliminates my anxiety completely. I can see most people on the road driving faster, rushing and I see myself the way I was before. Taking for granted everything that the present moment is giving you.

I suffered from major depression and crippling anxiety. I couldn't do "1 day at a time." I controlled myself by thinking just get through the next 5 minutes (or any small amount of time). It helped. This is something that took a good 14 years from my quality of life. Being able to control anxiety is difficult, but it can be done. Don't be discouraged. Peace ☮️.

@Round 1 It about all nows, being fulfilled , all time one work in now it the same in retirement, the last will be more difficult because the old habits to work for future. Retirement would become restless. It remind me a company, with unusual approach to their employees. The moment you are hired you have one day of week to be free to figure out what you will do when retirement come. It not a day off, it your retirement day that some point come and you have to know how you live it, need learn it now. What happened after this, everybody started enjoying their work, the production sky high. The training retirement time become irrelevant, something changed the flame of mind of everybody. ( It is the freedom to chose, freedom of not be slaved by work in life) It the most intelligent idea of organization can apply. It is life of their employees the company giving back, the reward is beyond of reward.

Watching my life happen in a dark matrix of my own making. One day I just said a few words. One sentence, I don't know where it came from, nor do I need to know. Words I say everytime I start to think or feel in a negative way. Instantly I literally feel positivity flowing through me. I have to use the words less and less. It's simply. 'do not feed the monster'.

Referring to that, The Dalai Lama gave me a foreword for that book (Results from the Heart), while also pointing that we need to connect to heart while we use our brain. That is precisely the point Tolle talk after 9 min into the video which is alignment of our existence/ life with LIFE. Since we get too occupied in what goes in our mind, such act of connection between brain and heart - or life and LIFE poses a challenge for most of us...

Just a thought, social media may have something to do with not being happy with the present moment because we are always trying to keep up with the Jones' and comparing our lives with others. Every time we see a notification from a friend seeing what a great time their having makes you feel despondent and lke you are a bore. You have to turn this thinking inside out and say wait a minute I'm happy with what I have and I am thankful for what I have.

_"Every time we see a notification from a friend seeing what a great time their having makes you feel despondent & like you;re a bore."_ And then... when "followers" aren't as gaga with the "like" button, that friend feels invalidated (something's changed. "I'm not as 'in' as I was." Not rating as high as they used to. Now they need to do something really out there, like "hacking" macaroni & cheese.). Performance anxiety: you're only as big as your last hit. (I always think of the 1950 movie, _Sunset Boulevard_ about an old washed-up actress living in seclusion, waiting for the industry to call her back. Social Media is _that_ but on a more common scale.

As a 62 year old guy, who has had anxiety off and on all my life...Eckhart has helped me so much. I've said it before, and I'll say it again...I love this man.

As an ex flight instructor i always thought students how to land by not thinking of getting the plane on the ground..get the plane close to the ground first..then the second part is getting it to touch the ground. Breaking big things into smaller sections really helps focus

EKHART, you are akin to an anchor in this world of turmoil.. I do not understand all your philosophy, I am very old, no excuse I know, but I see in you teachings in similarity to the way it was when I was young..

This particular idea always makes me smile. Years ago I had to give a talk in front of many,many people on a stage….fretted for days and nights. The day came-the moment arrived- the spotlight went on and I was struck dumb-literally. Could NOT say a word and hard to leave the stage on jelly legs ina cloud of humiliation… and could not actually speak the whole rest of the day! Soooooo - I have never repeated the invitation to ever do this again and it is my tiger in the room. No i amount of taking little steps had helped me. Hey Ho! I guess I wasn’t designed by the universe to be ‘good’ at or to ‘accept’ this chore. That’s OK. Others do it better and that’s Ok too. 🙏🏻

It's the fact that all of us here are looking, we are trying to find peace, trying to make the world a better place, and what you give attention to expands. After all of human evolution isn't it time that we cop on to that possibility.
