Psychological time is the prison.
Calendar time is useful. It tells us when the meeting starts, when the plane leaves, when to show up.
But psychological time tells us something very different:
I’ll be happy when…
I’ll finally have peace when…
Once this changes, then I can relax.
And so the mind continually leaves what is in search of what’s next.
But there is no next.
Life is never happening tomorrow. Tomorrow, when it arrives, will arrive as Now.
Use time to organize your life—but don’t use it to postpone your life.
You can only be here.
And when we stop trying to get somewhere else, we discover that the peace we were searching for in the future was already present in the Deep Now.
