When success equals “achievement,” it’s nearly impossible for your brain to focus on the current moment for very long.

How come?
It’s too busy thinking about what you’ve got to do next or regretting past mistakes you might have made.
Make it your goal to live in the moment without judgment.
It goes against everything you’ve been taught since childhood and seems to defy the fundamentals of what it takes to be successful.
However, I give you my word, this simple practice will help you feel more satisfaction in your life both personally and professionally.
