The Future Can Wait — Be Present
2025-07-17 | We only get one life; stop waiting for the “real” part to begin
tags: motivation - We have two lives, the second one begins when we realize we only have one
- One thing I’ve found myself struggling with, is going through the motions
- Let’s get this day out of the way so I can get onto that greater future
- Or something bad happened to me today, so I’ll just get today over with and tomorrow will be better
- But I’m realizing that every single thing happens to us exactly the way it’s supposed to
- Some days are not going to be amazing, and not everything is going to be sunshine and rainbows
- Appreciate each day because nothing is guaranteed1
- We can’t take today for granted; So instead of waiting for the future, appreciate the now
- Whether it’s the people, the opportunities, or the moments that we have right in front of us
