BATTER UP

Albert Camus: "Real generosity towards the future lies in giving all to the present."

The past 'me' is a ghost. The large catalog of memory I have of myself can make me feel like the past me is who I am. But it is no more real than the future me, a fantasy. So why do I define myself by my past and future when the only real me is now! This me cannot be beaten. This me cannot be broken. This me makes the right decisions. This me is ready for whatever pitch comes my way. Businessmen that do not honor this reality can be tricked by topics such as sunk costs. In this case an investment in our past can overwhelm our current decision making ability, working against our best interest in the present. Therefore, experience each moment fully, as though it is all that there is, taking all things into consideration without being swayed by past ghosts or future fantasies, and your best self will emerge.
