An inspiring scene from the movie Peaceful Warrior.
The centuries old teacher Socrates teaches Dan about taking out the trash.
“The trash is anything that is keeping you from the only thing that matters… this moment, here and now.”
The negative beliefs from our past and our fears and uncertainties about the future hold us back from making the most of the present, and we need to let go of them.
“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.”
