Arrive into the present. There is a saying that if you are anxious, it's because you are living in the future. And if you are depressed, it's because you are living in the past. When you are living in the present moment you realise that both the past and the are just current illusions in the infinite eternal now.
Try to be happy in this present moment, and put not off being so to a time to come — as though that time should be of another make from this which has already come and is ours.

The secret of happiness is to enjoy the moment, without allowing unhappy memories or fear of the future to shadow the shining present.
Happiness to me is mainly not suffering, not desiring, not thinking too much about the future or the past, really embracing the present moment and the reality of what is, and the way it is. [4]
Learn that living in the present moment will always heal you. Living in the past forces you to align with it, especially if there is pain. Living in the future forces you to be anxious — live here.
That is the simple secret of happiness. Whatever you are doing, don’t let past move your mind; don’t let future disturb you. Because the past is no more, and the future is not yet. To live in the memories, to live in the imagination, is to live in the non-existential. And when you are living in the non-existential, you are missing that which is existential. Naturally you will be miserable, because you will miss your whole life.
