Many self-help gurus extol the benefits of living in the present moment. However, simply living in the here and now will not solve your issues – at least, not immediately. Tuning into the present is like finally cleaning out the dirty garage you've been avoiding for years: it will be an unpleasant and effortful chore. Appreciating the problem of now helps us make sense of why so few people take advantage of this free and available intervention.

I kind of disagree and think you are missing the point. But first, I’d like to say, just as you are making a point, a commercial plays, and that interrupts your stream of information. By the time the commercial ends, it’s hard to pick back up.

Now that I’ve interrupted my stream of conversion, I’ll get back to my point. My point is, in those rare moments when we do have a sensuous buffet before us, we SHOULD enjoy it. Be in that moment. Don’t take out your phone and text about it, just enjoy it. You’ll be back home standing in your dirty garage soon enough.
