The Power Of Now

Last year is history; this year is a mystery; now is all that counts.

Since we are all tired of hearing how terrible last year was, and since it is not clear how much longer our personal and global pain and suffering will last, let’s take to heart Eckhart Tolle’s advice to focus on where we are now, and take appropriate action.

Faced with 40-to-1 odds against the British, George Washington, instead of worrying or complaining, crossed the Delaware River in the middle of the night, during the dead of winter, once again proving that courage does not mean we are not afraid. Instead, courage means we proceed despite being afraid.

Our City Club community is facing its fair share of challenges, but instead of freezing in the face of fear, we are building and expanding in anticipation of a bright future, launching what we hope to be a global institute, and offering to help any member who needs it in any way we can.

Best wishes for a healthy, meaningful, and prosperous year ahead.
