One day must come to and end before another can begin. There’s often a moment, if we choose to observe it, that captures the essence of this reality and makes us eager for the next chapter.
The ongoing pattern of days becoming weeks, months, decades, centuries and millennia continues. That continuum parallels aspects of our lives that occur within it. The natural pattern of daily cycles reveals a hint on how we can Maximize the Moment.
Our lives are a collection of experiences, each of which unfold, develop and prepare us for what’s next. School years forge an education, work experiences build a career, and life events continually lead us to the next chapter. We grow from child to adult, sometimes shift from single to married, and we may even contribute to the next generation.
The past got us here, the present is the space we live in and the future represents the next chapter. How the story unfolds is partly determined by how each day is used to prepare for what’s next.
