Let’s be honest about what is possible and what is not: Change does not take place tomorrow. Either we change ourselves in the moment, or not at all. We do not lose weight, develop our art, or mysteriously become more kind or conscientious an hour from now. It is learning to be in conscious command of our attention in the present moment that produces and empowers real change in us.
