The "thought world" can only exist "now".
Thoughts, arising and passing, now.
Thought, is an aspect of now.

Another word for what you are describing as "the thought world of past 
and future" is simply 'imagination', which can only presents as a 
problem to the extent you believe it to be separate or otherwise 
different from "now". In an of itself, such thinking is just thinking. A 
useful survival mechanism. Realizing this, it serves. Deluded by this, 
it hinders. "Now".
