For many people, the first step towards something better is wishing they were already there. So they put it off for another day. They justify their behavior and believe that “tomorrow” will be different. There is magical thinking that everything will eventually be okay.
So nothing changes, and more and more time goes by. No matter what your path is in life, you begin to notice the here and now when you recognize your inability to control obstacles and outcomes.
I invite you to take a moment to notice what is happening in your life. What are you experiencing right now? If you can identify some struggle, attempt to embrace it. It is the vehicle for growth.
Let the present moment be your starting point and move forward from there. Don’t try to leap ahead to a future version of yourself because, in doing so, you leave out necessary parts of your journey.
