Life is a balancing act. Between family, friends, work, and whatever else occupies your days, it can be awfully difficult to be in a state of mind that is fully present. And that’s a problem.

It’s okay to worry, of course, but too much of it will simply ruin your ability to enjoy life or be productive. If struggling to stay present sounds familiar to you, have a look at this powerful piece that will teach you how to deal with overload in order to keep your mind in one place at a time.
