Are You in a Mood?

The answer to that question is, of course, "yes" - we're all in a "mood" all of the time until we take charge of what's going on between our own two ears.

When you do, you're going to discover something so breathtakingly simple that you'll marvel at how easy it is to change your life... yes, that's what I said.

Choosing to take charge is even simpler than it sounds: you don't try to change your mind, you don't have to start trying to think "happy thoughts" - none of that superfluous nonsense is required.

All you do is... choose to turn up. Turn up to what? Turn up to the reality of the present moment. When you do that, you stop thinking (it is, as you'll discover, thinking that put you in the mood in the first place), you become present. And, when you become present, you have presence. And we all know what that means: people with presence are attractive, people love to be around people who have that indefinable extra.

And, when you are present, your mood evaporates, stress evaporates and what you're left with is the reality of living your life your way here and now. And that certainly is life changing.
