What have you done lately?

It is human nature to survive. What separates us apart from one another is how we go about surviving. One person may decide to be a bum while another person is a CEO of the biggest corporation in the world. What I am saying is that the people who decide to do something about their problems and mistakes are the ones who succeed in this universe. It takes a hell of a lot more work to fix your past than it does to deal with it. But, the people who make that decision to fix things or make a better future for themselves now have the opportunity to have a foreseeable future. Thus giving them the ability to have memories and look back. I guarantee the people who make the step forward and do something with themselves look back and realize one of two things. 1.) They completely messed up and ruined their life. 2.) They remember the point where they made the decision to better themselves and the moment that they realize that they have become something better is the greatest moment of their life so far.

The goal is not to visualize what your life would be like if you were successful. The goal is to visualize what you can do this very second to improve your life. Don't create irrational thoughts about being rich and popular. That shit is worthless when you wake up one day broke and washed up. You need a plan. With a plan you can think of what you want to do. Then you can plan for screwing up. But most importantly you can plan for what happens when your work pays off. The beautiful thing is that when you have a plan, you can also give yourself the chance to plan the unforeseeable future. If there is a chance of failure then you plan for it. Dont leave yourself vulnerable because doing that is just opening yourself up for being attacked. That is just what the average person wants. They want you to fail to give them room to succeed. It's our choice to let them win while you wander into doubt. Then you will look back and make that wish. The one where you had the opportunity to take that first step. And you didn't.
