THE LOTUS LANE

Retirement worry can spiral into paralysis when we keep measuring today against a frightening future. The shift that actually helps is smaller than it sounds — stop counting what you're missing and make one real move with what you have right now.

“Rather than lamenting what we don't have, we should ask how to make the best use of what we do have. People who are always anxious about the future, who are always looking over their shoulder at what they lack, will never find the energy to take action in the present.”

- Daisaku Ikeda, The Wisdom for Creating Happiness and Peace, Part 1
