Staying in the "Now"

I really struggle with staying in the present. The past and the future are my default positions, and that thinking is not good for me. Anyone else struggle with this? How do you keep your head where your feet are?

    Yesterday was history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift called the Present!

    I try to stay in what's happening today, but sometimes get caught up on what could happen in the future, which I really don't have too much control over. I just follow our mantra, one day at a time which helps me stay focused. I tend leave the past where it is and only revisit when working on a fourth step.
