One of the most empowering lessons I have been blessed to receive at this point in my life is my understanding that for most of my life I have not been able to live in the present moment. To be where my feet are, if you will.
When we are full of fear, we are either living in the past or living in the future. We are afraid of losing something we have or not getting something we want. So we are focused on anything other than being in this present moment, which is in fact the only place that we can affect change in our lives.
