I agree with living in the present moment, but as you know that can be really hard to do for some people. Some of the things like, don't worry about anything, is almost impossible. lol Do you remember the one part this lady was getting sued, anyways he told her not to worry about it. ( I think someone was getting sued. It's been a while since I read the book) Anyways, I was like how can you not worry about something like that? Or if you didn't have enough money for a bill. From what the author states don't worry about. lol Some of the stuff I do agree with, but some of it was far fetched.
