When grappling with a difficult moment, ask:

Where in time is the source of my angst? Often the thing upsetting us is buried in the past or projected into the future. The past is gone, be done with it. The future is a fantasy. Return to now. There is no other time you can ever actually experience. Chances are right now, you can handle whatever is happening in this moment.

This is all you’ll ever need to do. This is all you can do.  

Zoom the lens of your life’s camera in tight, look at this moment, hour, or day and commit to do your very best here and now.
