Inhale The Future Exhale The Past Quotes

When you begin to realize that your past does not necessarily dictate the outcome of your future, then you can release the hurt. It is impossible to inhale new air until you exhale the old.

Life is like a lit cigarette. The past is ashes, the present is burning, and the future is up in smoke. Fast as a breath; inhale exhale.

Inhale the present, exhale the past and the future.

Inhale the future, exhale the past.

Think of it this way: you cannot take a breath in the past nor can you take a breath in the future. Therefore, when you focus on a single exchange of inhaling and exhaling, you connect to the most important moment in your life, the one that is happening right now. The present moment. We have no influence over any other moment. Those behind us are memories. Those before us are guesses. Learn to focus on your breath, and you develop the power to simplify your life in a given moment and choose your conscious place in it.

It’s easy to say, but what does it really mean to be in the moment? It means to completely engross yourself in what you’re doing at that point in time. If you’re breathing, it means to focus on inhaling and exhaling; if you’re walking, to focus on taking each step forward; and if you’re running, focusing on the movements of your arms and legs. To focus on the single action of the moment, and to put aside the past and future.

Inhale the future, exhale the past.
