“A big part of having a positive attitude revolves around living in the present, something most people find increasingly difficult to do. Rather, they often find themselves reflecting on what might have been or having anxiety about what will come next. As one popular saying goes, ‘If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present.’ People who live in the present are fundamentally grateful for what they have in that moment. People who are grateful also don’t feel that the world owes them anything. They believe it’s their responsibility to go out and get it. True gratefulness also creates a deeper connection to others, and it is those relationships that will play such critical roles in your ultimate success and happiness.” – Robert Glazer
