If we're always striving for some future version of who we think we ought to be, we are completely missing the person that we are right now
In this episode of The Freeology Podcast, Jason Abbott dives into the importance of focusing on the present moment to become the best version of ourselves. Jason argues that constantly chasing a future version of ourselves can lead to a cycle of dissatisfaction and missed opportunities. Instead, he encourages us to embrace who we are now and make positive decisions in the present.

He also shares his own experiences with making healthy choices, like going for a hike despite the weather and starting his day with a cold plunge. Jason's message is clear: by making loving decisions towards ourselves now, we can create a better future.
