A Pratchett quote

[mahnmut]

"Most people aren't focused in time. They live their lives as a sort of temporal blur around the point where their body actually is - anticipating the future, or holding on to the past. They're usually so busy thinking about what happens next that the only time they ever find out what is happening now is when they come to look back on it. Most people are like this. They learn how to fear because they can actually tell, down at the subconscious level, what is going to happen next. It's already happening to them."

I really like this. I am definitely one of those people and I have to conciously choose to focus on today and not tomorrow.

It's good that you can self-analyze like this.
