Commitment Quote by Leonard Jacobson

“If your commitment is to being present, then there will come a time when being present becomes your natural state. The present moment becomes your home. You will have short excursions into the world of the mind, but you never go so far into the mind that you get lost there.” quote by Leonard Jacobson
