How to use daily habits to create the future of your dreams.
Are you happy with your life? I mean, are you really satisfied with how things are going for you?
If you are like a lot of people, the answer is probably a resounding “hell, no!”. And that really is too bad.
Because if you are not happy with your life today, when will you be happy? Tomorrow? The day after? When you get a new job? When you retire?
Living like that SUCKS. I know; been there, done that. Life is way too short to live that way.
But I also know that it does not have to be that way. You have the power to change your life. In fact, you are the only one that does have that power. Your boss can’t. Neither can your spouse. Not your kids. YOU.
And it is easier to do than you think.
Let me let you in on a secret.
The future? Does not exist yet. You get to create it. In fact, you DO create it, whether you realize it or not. You are creating your future right now as you read this. That’s just how it works.
The past? Entirely up to you as to how you want to interpret the experiences you have had. Those events that helped shape you into the beautiful person that you are today can be changed! When I first came across this idea, my mind was blown. I mean, we can literally change the past! How cool is that???
It does not matter what happened to you yesterday. Or last year. Or in your childhood. You can literally start to create the future that you want for yourself TODAY. (And don’t forget — you are creating it, right now!)
The truth is that our lives are created day by day.
So how do you start creating the future you want?
Simple. You decide what you want. And then you take tiny actions towards that dream.
Decide what you want to do, what you want your life to look like. Write it somewhere, somewhere where you can refer to it regularly.
And then start taking small, baby steps towards whatever it is you want. Every single day. They do not have to be big, massive steps. In fact, they shouldn’t be. That isn’t how you get there. That’s the mistake most people make, and I know that I can count my “past-self” in that camp.
You see, you create your future by the little actions you take every day. Your future is NOT determined by the massive…
