Do you find yourself wondering about a future event? Or maybe you've been guilty of saying, "I can't wait until ___."

A wise man once said, if you're depressed, you're living in the past. If you're anxious, you're living in the future. If you're at peace, you're living in the present.

I happen to have some thoughts this week about just this very thing. And how it really doesn't get any better than right NOW. In more ways than one.

Ever imagined what your life would be like if you actually won the LOTTERY? How amazing it would feel to wake up knowing you're set for life? That you'd never have to work again?

Have you ever been on an emotional roller coaster? I have been. Early on in the business it was ups and downs- multiple times a day. I'd write an application and be on cloud 9. Then a no-show and I'd question my entire decision to become a life insurance agent.

It's no way to operate any kind of business.

Since that time, I've learned a lot about where all that thought drama comes from and how to reign it in. Here's what I've learned. I hope it helps you stabilize your own ups and downs.

I'm encouraged this week by the good that still exists in humanity. I'm also as concerned as ever before that we, as a people, are protecting our minds against thoughts, beliefs and ideas that can keep us from accomplishing our goals and dreams.

Listen to a brief story that had a profound impact on me this week.

If you're waiting for the coronavirus to pass before taking action, you might want to reconsider. There's always going to be something keeping you from your goals. That's the nature of life. It's not all supposed to be rainbows and unicorns.

And anything great will certainly require an equal or grater amount of opposition to overcome in order to achieve it. In fact, the greater the dream, the stronger the opposition. So rather than resist and avoid, why not embrace and embark?

Listen to a big perspective change I had this week.

There's no question the world has changed. In a big way. You've never been through something like this and it has your head spinning with doubt, angst, confusion and worry.

But where does all this leave you? More importantly, how are you responding to it? Please listen to my heart as I answer those and other questions so many of us are asking ourselves right now. I don't have all the answers, but I feel strongly the message I'm sharing here will help some of you get through this.

And if you feel the urge, share this with anyone you feel might need it. It's a matter of life.

Such a powerful question.

But be super careful how you answer it. Actually, be careful how you ask it. In fact, I recommend you change it up just a little by adding one word that can make a world of difference.

That extra word and a funny sales story.
