We often tend to think about the future and set new goals. It is a function of the brain that is essential for us to evolve. As with many other things, it’s a pitfall. If you spend a lot of time thinking about the future, you risk overthinking. This, in turn, creates anxiety and negative thoughts that can contribute to mental illness.

Being in the present means that you are not thinking about what happened or what might come. In fact, it’s completely normal and we still tend to let our thoughts go back and forth.
If you focus more on time with yourself, you train your mind to be calm and present. Mindfulness is one way. Research shows that when you train your brain to be in the here and now, well-being and mental health increase.

If you’re lying on the couch thinking about the best job for you, chances are you’ll be caught up in ideas and evaluating back and forth. You knead the pros and cons.

This is one of the pitfalls of thinking too much in the future.
To reach your goal, you need an action plan that you implement step by step. Above all, it is important to work.
