Enjoy the Moment and Stay Positive

"adanzad" means to enjoy the present and stay positive. I was told by a spiritual teacher many years ago that we must live in the moment and not worry about anything. I have tried many times to remain positive in a world of negativity. I found that when I was able to focus solely on the present, I could experience a sense of joy.


I believe joy is one of the most important ingredients for happiness. The more joy you can experience in life, the more happiness you will find. I know joy when I experience it and I want to share the joy so others can experience it as well. You can learn how to find joy in your life.

As you look around and you notice that things are not as they have been in the past or even the future, you will find that joy. Even in today's difficult times joy is present. It is just waiting for us to choose to let it come in.

When you have joy you can focus on the here and now. You will find that joy gives you more energy and makes you happier. This goes without saying, but if you feel like your life has been a roller coaster ride, you may be in need of some help. You can get on a train that is headed for a different place and stop the negativity before it gets you.

In order to stay positive, you must surround yourself with positive friends and family. I know I always felt happy and positive around my family and friends. We enjoyed life together. Now I know that life can be difficult and challenging, but that is when I learned how to embrace change. Change can be a good thing. It can help you grow as a person.

What does it mean to be in the "now?" Today, most people are caught up in what they HAVE been doing. They worry about what tomorrow will bring. This is a form of depression and you need to learn to let go of it. We all have things we're grateful for right now, so focus on that. Have gratitude for every small thing right now, even if you don't like what you have right now.

If you find yourself saying "not today", try finding something you are grateful for. Focus on that for a few minutes and see what you are thankful for. You might find that you have a lot to be thankful for and that is the best way to start each day.

To truly enjoy the current moment and stay positive you need to surround yourself with positive people. You have to let them into your world. Don't be afraid of having joy. It is who you are, so embrace it.

When you surround yourself with positive people, it will become natural for you. When you are surrounded by negative people, it becomes difficult to smile and have fun. Instead of turning to your negative side, turn to your positive side. The universe will do the same thing.

Always remember that joy is a choice. You can't go out and buy it. Joy comes from within. Find your joy. Find joy within your own life. Keep bringing it forth and your life will show signs of joy.

The next thing to do is to find things that will bring more joy into your life. Find more things that make you smile. Make your day brighter. You will soon find that you are in the midst of a happy and positive world.


It's all about making choices that bring you a sense of happiness. You can't give up hope. Nothing is impossible. If you keep this up, you will find that you are living in a happy world full of joy. Enjoy the present moment.
