Start living now, not tomorrow

in #motivation6 years ago (edited)

People tend to wait for Friday, for Summer, for Happiness to occur. I said it before and I will say it again. The future does not exist. The concept of the future exist. So you are imagining yourself in the future being happier than now. That is why you are joyless. You are saying to your brain that until Friday or Summer is here I will be miserable. Because you stop valuing the present. You are living in your own fake reality imagining the present. That is one way you escape reality. I am not saying that I am not guilty of this as well. But I can say that I am trying to do something about it.

If you are waiting for Friday so you can enjoy life, it means that you need to change something. Maybe your job. We work so much every day and if you don't enjoy doing your job, you are wasting your life. When you value more Friday it means that you want to escape reality quicker. You want to go to the club and get drunk. You may not admit it, but your actions speak louder than words.

That is a problem most people won't admit they have. They are addicted to escaping reality. Facing their problems later.

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday... every day it is the same day. The sun rises then it goes down. A simple cycle. The labels for your day are just in your head. There are no months, days, years. There is just now. The now then becomes the past. We have the future. Where the future at first is just a concept then it becomes now and then it becomes the past.

If we take a look at the Seasons, we see that Summer is more lovable than any other season. Seasons are just temperature lows and hights. People are waiting all year for Summer that they only live like 3 months a year. They go to the beach and they do nothing like most of their days.

Stop waiting for the future, because you may not see it. In any given moment we can die and that is life. That is why we need to enjoy every single moment. Because it may be our last moment.

Wanting to escape reality is a big issue nowadays. It is way too easy for you just to get drunk and so on. It is way too hard to face responsibility and to act.

The harsh truth is that the problem you are trying to escape will not go away until you face it. You waste your time trying to escape your fate. Change your life so to any day be Friday. And any season Summer. Enjoy the little things. That is the key to Happiness. God Bless.
