This article/episode was inspired by The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. In this piece, we'll be discussing how to defeat anxiety and stress by bringing yourself into the present moment.

Scroll down to read or click Play to listen.

"The more you are able to honor and accept the Now, the more you are free of pain, of suffering – and free of the egoic mind." —Eckhart Tolle (from The Power of Now)

It is important to focus on making the Now the main priority in your life. Even if the present moment is uncomfortable or difficult, accepting rather than trying to fight it or go against it will bring great rewards.

When we do not access the power of the Now, every painful emotion we have leaves its mark on us and lives on, combining with other pain we've experienced throughout our lives. This pain becomes powerful negative energy that affects the body and mind - Tolle calls this a "pain body."

When pain bodies become too strong, they can take over.

When you're experiencing pain, there is a way to achieve consciousness and defeat it. First, recognize the pain; accept the fact that it exists without identifying with it or judging it. Become an observer of what's happening inside you and it will lose its power over you.

Fear occurs when we are in the present, but our minds are in the future thinking about what could happen. It is impossible to deal with something that has not happened yet, so anxiety often occurs. People who only identify with their minds and thoughts rather than their true deeper self will live with fear forever.

The ego also creates a pain within us that stems from feeling like we're not whole...

The journal—it's one of those things that can be as useless as a piece of trash, or one of the most valuable things you've ever owned…

It all depends on what you fill that journal's pages with.

Today, I'm going to share some of my personal favorite journaling ideas. You can use them all, combine the ones you like, or pick the single journaling idea that most resonates with where you're at in life right now.

Either way, journaling—when done regularly—almost always leads to fresh, new insights and ideas that can absolutely transform your life.

I've used all of these journaling ideas below at some point in my life. Either to get through tough times, to achieve my goals, maintain my sanity, or to foster my creative efforts (like fleshing out topic ideas for articles, podcasts or talks.)

Whichever one of these journaling ideas you decide to use, just promise me this: you'll actually use them. Because they'll only work if you work them…

MeaningfulHQ.com | 293. Emotions Create Habits

MeaningfulHQ.com | 292. The Daily Design |

Nobody wakes up in the morning and says, "Today I want to put out fires all day long." But you probably know what a day like that feels like. I'm talking about those days when you wake up wanting to make meaningful progress on your goals, but you end up being pulled in every direction but the one you want to be going towards. What do you do when that happens?

If you're not sure, you're not at fault—they don't teach us how to be intentional in grade school. But if you are ready to start being more intentional about each of your days, let me introduce you to a simple habit that can help you:

I call it the Daily Design.

And it takes less than five minutes a day, but can provide you with just enough intention, inspiration and structure to focus on doing meaningful work—on moving the needle on the things that matter most to you each day.
