"私は過去にも未来にも住んでいません。私が興味があるのは現在だけです。もしあなたが常に現在に集中できるなら、あなたは幸せな人になるでしょう。人生はあなたにとってパーティーになります、壮大な祭りになるでしょう。なぜなら人生とは私たちが今生きている瞬間だからです。"
— Paulo Coelho
Simplified Meaning:
Focusing on the present means paying attention to what is happening right now instead of worrying about the past or the future. When people spend too much time thinking about their mistakes or what might happen later, they can miss out on enjoying what's happening in front of them. For example, if you're eating lunch with friends but keep thinking about a problem at work or something embarrassing that happened last week, you won't enjoy the meal or the company. By staying present and appreciating the current moment, you can find joy and make each moment special. This approach to life can make you feel happier because you're fully engaged and not distracted by things you can't change or predict. So, try to live in the moment; it will make your daily experiences more enjoyable and fulfilling.
