Time and Perspective

Unless in times of extreme duress, what a person has to accomplish in any given moment is very simple. Within the moment, a person must only accomplish the task the is right in front of them. When we realize this, the task becomes doable.

     There will always be a list of tasks that need to be accomplished. We feel the need to accomplish them because we are trying to fulfill a desire that we have. We want to fulfill the desire because we are comparing our current state with the supposed state that we will be in, once the desire is fulfilled. The comparison of our present state with the supposed state, makes us discontent with our current state. The discontentment creates a feeling of anxiety. The anxiety creates a feeling of immediacy. When we work on a task while we are thinking about futuristic tasks, we will feel a sense of discontentment.
