Inevitably, things will come up in your life that are largely or entirely out of your control. This is just part of life. While you cannot change certain circumstances, you can change your attitude towards them. Trying to control the things you can't can often backfire and make you more stressed out. Every time you think of something that you cannot control, write it on a piece of paper. Place it in a box and move on. Letting go of stressful situations or people will allow you to work on the things you can control. Think about how you will make today better, instead of always working toward a future goal. If you live too far ahead in the future all the time, you are missing out on life. Life only happens in the present moment. While this isn't a recommendation to live every day like it is your last, because every day is not actually your last, it is a good idea to spend some time each day enjoying the present moment. To live more in the present, you can:  Do only one task at a time; avoid multitasking. Put some space in between your day to day tasks to give you some time to reflect and not feel too rushed. Set aside 5-10 minutes each day to do absolutely nothing at all but sit in silence. Eat slowly and focus on the flavor and texture of your food. Get an activity guide for your city, ask some friends, or dig around online for fun things to do near you. Take a risk and try some new activities. Go by yourself or ask a friend or your significant other. What matters most is that you are trying something novel and being open-minded about it. Trying something new can have a number of benefits, such as:  Giving you courage by facing the unknown. Fighting off boredom. Allowing you to grow via new experiences. Take a class online or in person or watch some free lectures online. A lifelong learning center can provide an inexpensive opportunity to learn photography, social media or another skill you've been wanting to master.
