Stop Waiting To Live

Today, I posted the following question in a Facebook group in which I belong.

I expected some of the answers.

“ I would travel
I’d open _____ business
I’d help the less fortunate “

Some were not expected, lol

“I’d be a hit-man.”

One man even accused me of trying to sell people on a upsell to a course, which I wasn’t.

I think the thing that got to me was the overwhelming sense of “I’d love to do that…one day.”

No judgment because I was the king of “one day.”

But in a time like this where nothing is guaranteed, the overreliance on tomorrow was bothersome to read.

One woman said she’d work on her candle business.

I replied to ask if she was making candles now, she said no.

I encouraged her to start making them again, even if only for herself.

I genuinely believe every day we spend not living in our purpose is a wasted day.

I get the reality of life, bills, family, obligations that make choices like going full throttle into work you love, complicated.

But what if you set aside an hour a day to do what you love, at first for yourself then as you gain confidence, in the service of others.

I think you’d be happier and feel more fulfilled. Ultimately, the world would be a more joyful place too.

Let’s stop waiting for tomorrow. Life is now; it’s time to live it.
