7 critical lessons from the book "The Power of Now"1.


1. “Realize deeply that the present moment is all you have. Make the NOW the primary focus of your life.”

2. “Any action is often better than no action, especially if you have been stuck in an unhappy situation for a long time. If it is a mistake, at least you learn something, in which case it's no longer a mistake. If you remain stuck, you learn nothing.”

3. “If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place. Primary reality is within; secondary reality without.”

4. “Accept — then act. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy. This will miraculously transform your whole life.”

5. “Where there is anger there is always pain underneath.”

6. “Nothing has happened in the past; it happened in the Now. Nothing will ever happen in the future; it will happen in the Now.”

7. “If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.”
