I’ve always been a lover of music and totally enjoy being able to get some wisdom out of what I’m listening to.  The new CD by Jason Mraz has a bunch of positive music on it, but one song in particular always seems to ground me and re-remind me of what I should be focusing on.  It’s called, “Living in the Moment” and is full of a bunch of great lyrics….but it’s also a very catch song.

I’m letting Jason provide the Make it Happen inspiration today and have included some of my favorite lines from this song.  It hasn’t been released as a single or video yet, but I have included a youtube video at the bottom of this post that plays the song and lays down all the lyrics….so be sure to click play and use it as the soundtrack for your week.

I know not all of you agree with me on the riding with music idea, but if you do ride with your iPod be sure to add this one to your playlist.

Living in the Moment (selected lyrics)

by Jason Mraz

I will not waste my days
Making up all kinds of ways
To worry about all the things
That will not happen to me

I’m letting myself off the hook for things I’ve done
I let my past go past
And now I’m having more fun
I’m letting go of the thoughts
That do not make me strong
And I believe this way can be the same for everyone

So I just let go of what I know I don’t know
And I know I’ll only do this by
Living in the moment
Living our life
Easy and breezy
With peace in my mind
With peace in my heart
Peace in my soul
Wherever I’m going, I’m already home
Living in the moment
