Peaceful Warrior, 6. Peaceful Warrior

6. Peaceful Warrior

Hey! I'm talking to you. What the hell is wrong with you? You said you were in a hurry.

So you pushed me off the bridge? I emptied your mind.

You what? I emptied... No, you didn't. You threw me into the river.

And while you were falling, tell me, Dan, what were you thinking of?

I don't know! Were you thinking about school? No!

Grocery shopping? No!

This thing you had to hurry off to? No!

I was... The present. Devoted 100% to the experience you were having.

You even had a word for it.

You're out of your mind. You know that?

It's taken a lifetime of practice. We want you out of your mind, too, Dan.

What is that you do?

Some kind of martial arts move?

I didn't see it coming. You weren't paying attention. Even now you're not. Your mind's filling up again. You're missing out on everything that's going on. There's nothing going on. There's never nothing going on. Take out the trash, Dan.

The trash is anything that is keeping you from the only thing that matters, this moment. Here.

Now.

And when you truly are in the here and now, you'll be amazed at what you can do and how well you can do it.
