Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world.

Savor the task, savor the moment

In every situation, savor the moment. Whatever you must do, savor the task.

Don’t rush ahead in your mind to whatever is next. Give all of yourself to whatever is here and now.

Resist the urge to make a judgment as to whether it is good or bad, helpful or a waste of time. Just savor it, and fully experience it.

After all, you’re there, you’re in the moment you’re in, you’re doing whatever you’re doing, so do it with all you have. Fighting against it will not serve any positive purpose.

Yes, there are some situations, some people, some activities that it is good to get away from as quickly as possible. Yet while you are there, while you are with them, enjoy, appreciate and savor the moment.

Develop within yourself an unshakable positive presence. Savor the task, savor the moment, savor the experience, whatever it may be, and feel the immense power of your own acceptance.

— Ralph Marston
