Will Your Future-Self Be Proud of What You Have Done with Your Life?
Hi, Steemians!
For some people, their hero is themselves but many years in the future when they will eventually meet and decide how they have spent their life.
Ask yourself this question: If you were to see your future-self, would you be proud of the person you have become, or will you just be an old man full of regret, counting his days until they come to an end?
There will come a day when you will be shown a vision. The vision of everything you could have been and everything you could have accomplished; the person you could have become.
An image of your ideal-self who has lived a brilliant life.
On that day, you will either know the know the person or he will be a complete stranger to you.
You may know him a bit, which means you have walked towards your destiny a bit.
You may know him very well, which means that you have nearly accomplished everything that you were born to do.
You may also come to think that he might be your identical twin, and that is a fulfilled and accomplished life.
Let us not wait for that day. Try to imagine that vision. Try to think about that person right now. How close do you resemble him?
Think about your thoughts, your words, and your actions. Do they fall to harmony with that image?
Think about your decisions. Do they get you closer to realizing that vision and turning it into a reality?
Because if the answer is no, you are doing everything wrong.
Your life is a road. A difficult and turbulent road. At the very end stands a person waiting years on end for you to finally meet him.
Will you be ashamed of that person, or will you keep your face up and stand proud when you confront him?
Try to be mindful of the person who is waiting for you in the future.
Always keep him in mind. Think every thought, say every word, and do every deed in a manner that would make him or her proud.
There may be a lot of eyes on you even now, all expecting you to become successful in life.
But remember, most important of all is the person who is standing at the end of the road patiently waiting for you to reach him and make him proud.
Do not live your life with the regret of past decisions.
If you have ever thought or said or done something that would bring shame to that person, make a decision here and now and make sure that it was the last thought, word, or action that did not fall into harmony with your vision.
It is only then when you will live a life of happiness, without regret or fear, without the constant haunting thought that you may be doing it all wrong.
Think of that vision, and keep it close in your mind and in your soul.
Ask this question: Will your future ideal-self be proud or ashamed of who you will eventually become?
A BIG HUG!

@chbartist sir
We can not evaluate our work ourselves. I am not completely convinced that we have done something to pride ourselves in the future. Yes, it is definitely done that intentionally has not harmed anyone, has not broken anyone's faith, has not hurt anyone's feelings, has given equal respect to everyone, has not cheated on anyone, and those things on his own Do not dominate those who lead us towards the ego.
Our good deeds are accounted for by God and that is why our good deeds make our identity in this world. I believe that with the positive thinking, starting the day and ending the day without hurting anybody, the day is the biggest capital accumulated for the future, which gives us a little scope to take pride in ourselves.
Thank you for your great learning.
Progression is the key, and not perfection. Very impactful article... thank you for your great learning.
You very nice and beautiful.
Hello @chbartist ,
I agree with you that we should not ignore those people who have some expectations from us. We should respect their expectations.
Thank you for the work you are putting to combine this community. I really appreciate your efforts.
I believe in "united we stand, divided we fall". We togather can win.
Keep up the good work my friend.
Please let me know if i can do anything.

Who doesn’t want to be proud? At the ending period of life everyone sitting idle, calculate what he/she accumulated in the past long life if he/she did something good that made them proud and did something wrong that made them regretful, it varies person to person on which track he/she interested to run their lives, someone gets pleasure hutting others on the other hand someone gets pleasure by helping, actually your excellent writing inspires us to be much more generous to the God's creatures of the temporary living world and to be prouder of ourself, respected by the society and get consultations for our nice work, we're eagerly waiting for our nice future, may God bless us to be successful in our dream.
Nice post @chbartist.
It is important to watch the kind of activities we carry out in our youthful days because most of the time, the repercussions are not experienced immediately. Also most regrets in later life are tied down to "use of precious time" in one's early years.
Time is precious and once lost it cannot be gotten again. Hence it's best for Young Minds to maximally use their time and opportunities while young and full of energy.

An excellent overview @chbartist and you are right, a view of yourself in the future is a very important thing and we should always do it. We all go somewhere and strive for our goals, but without a clear idea of the completion of our journey it is not possible to assess our future and what it will be!
Saludos @chbartist! Se trata de vivir el presente como uno desea vivir, feliz con lo que se tiene, y con el entusiasmo que el camino que se esta recorriendo nos lleva a la meta; la satisfacción de haber tenido una vida plena!
Gracias @chbartist!Great article,However so far I haven't done a job on which I can feel proud but I am constantly trying .

Keep on doing whatever you do and later you realise that you did tremendous job and will be proud of. You only need to give your best with full dedication.

All you can do is all you can do.
I agree very much with your post. There is so much in life that we miss out on because we do not want to leave our comfort zone or due to fear. Fear of the unknown, fear of failure, judgement, the list goes on and on. But by developing a clear vision and honestly assessing where you are in terms of reaching that vision is the way to go. I would like to also add that you will probably not know the roads to take to get to your future self so that is why I feel it is so important on having a mentor that has what you want in your life. Following the footsteps of another successful person (and I mean this in a way that isn't necessarily about money or status) and learn how to become and have what you so desire. Association matters! If you want to elevate your mindset and your dreans, you need to associate with others who will lift you up not bring you down.
Thank you for sharing!
Satan loves nothing more than to remind one of past sins which God, via Jesus have forgiven. I am a firm believer that the past can serve as a springboard...teachable moment...to those coming behind; as well as those going through what you've experienced.
Peace.
In order for our future to be cloudless and our loved ones and ourselves could be proud of us, we must create it right now so that it would not be a shame later
