Omar Khayyam said in Rubaiyat, “the moving finger writes and having writ moves on; nor all your piety nor wit shall lure it back to cancel half a line, nor all your tears wash out a word of it.”
No regret, no penance will recreate your past differently. Reliving the past is an exercise in futility and foolishness. The future does not exist yet. To create the future is speculative. You do not even know whether you will breathe your next breath. What arrogance, therefore, to think of creating your future.
Again another fallacy is that we learn from our past mistakes and move on without making the same ones again and again…what a fool’s paradise we live in…
What really matters is the present, our present which we often put at risk by delving into to the past or trying to decipher a future we have never seen or never will.
Hence my friends to gain control over ourselves and become true masters of our destiny what we need is to focus on our present.
The greatest and of course the toughest achievement is to do what we do at a particular time and only do that not think of anything else…
That way we sleep when we sleep
And work when we work
And not like we usually think about something else during work.
Hence our powers of concentration are well honed and we do whatever we do perfectly. Which again leads to satisfaction with our present, as we all know many presents make our past and the seed of the future lies in the present. So try to think about your present neither past nor future…
Invariably when u concentrate on your present you’ll notice that the future is secure and the past doesn’t hurt any longer.
