This time

Most of the time, we go through our lives with a zoomed-in lens, one that focuses our attention on the present moment. Our life shrinks down to this hour, this day, this month, this season.

That's what makes good times so good and hard times so hard. They are all-encompassing. Learning how to zoom out, to put this moment into a greater perspective, is an essential skill, one that can help us to increase our joy and to increase our resilience.

In good times, remember: this will change. So savor it. In hard times, remember: this will change. So hold on.
