Do you just live your life and passively resign to your predicament, or do you choose to choose
and actively create the kind of life that you want for yourself?

(aside from resigning ourselves to being unhappy): find work that is meaningful, or find something meaningful in our work.
Remind yourself to focus on the here and now, start wearing a wristband, paint the word now on your watch, or have a screensaver on your computer or phone that you associate with being present. Focus on your breathing or on some other physical sensation (or even your physical surroundings). Even a minute of centering every few hours can go a long way toward improving the quality of your entire day.
