Do you think a book should be past tense if the narrator isn’t retelling or journaling on the story? ( first person)

I’m writing the second to last draft of my book and have been trying a present tense method but find it very difficult. Do you think it’s okay to have the first person narrator tell what happened in past tense but have the character not talking to the reader or using the book like a journal?
