Some People talk as if they control the future

No one is promised tomorrow
Focusing on what could be problematic in the future is a waste of time and energy. Focus on the little things that are good now
Live your life now not in the future

That is all

Some aspects of the future cannot be avoided, if one decides to only focus on the now.

For instance, spending a year's salary on a speed boat, will get the adrenaline flowing today, but if you don't put that money in a retirement plan, there will come a time when the speed boat is gone, and you can no longer physically be able to use one, but you need money out of your retirement fund, to pay the rent and buy groceries.

And that could be one hell of a problem to deal with in the future.
