Living in the Moment?

I am by nature future oriented. I plan and scheme and spend a fair amount of time and energy into "anticipating" trends and cause and affect relationships in order to convince myself I have a degree of certainty around getting what I want or understanding what might/could/should happen? I have recently discovered this way of living reflects a "mental trap" which takes me away from living the current moment to it's full potential. This "anticipatory" forward thinking is a habit that I would like to break. Right now I am sitting at my computer typing this blog, enjoying the creative expression, the sharing and a warm cup of coffee. I believe this is a "first thing first" activity so I am comfortable in my choice of how I am spending my time although in the back of my mind I am lamenting my procrastination related to another activity that is left undone that should have been completed last night. As I compose and type this blog I am also working through my day in my head. I have a presentation at 8:30 a.m. to make, a supplier meeting at 11:00 a.m. and a number of critical tasks to complete and my mind is currently reviewing the details and analyzing the outcomes. This activity is largely counterproductive and is taking away from my focus (and enjoyment) of the moment. I have already set the day up, completed the pre-work-I am prepared-the meetings are a few hours away-no need to run through the details? I want to "free up" my awareness to be more open and receptive to the "in the moment" stimulus verses pre-occuppied with the future? An interesting battle with the potential for a more rewarding life as an outcome? Let's see what happens?
