Hi Fool.
What a weird week so far, weird because the people who I know but don’t know each other are all feeling the same– tiny bit depressed.
It’s not the clinical kind either, more the funk that follows realizing you wanted more from life and this ain’t it.
Me on the other hand? I feel excellent, and the reason for them not but me yes is this: I have measurable steps that provide me with progress and they don’t.
In english– they’re floating because they don’t have a daily action that’s aligned with their goals.
What they don’t tell you is progress is not enough, you need to receive short terms wins from your progress, otherwise you won’t feel it and you’ll eventually quit.
I’ve come to realize something so important it’s literally eased all my pain and sharpened my focus: Your life, this one, it’s right here–in front of you.
STOP waiting for conditions to be met.
Instead assume they never will.
STOP thinking of best case situations and dreams you may like to live, instead make something. If you’re not a maker, do something.
But the dream life doesn’t happen through day-dreaming.
Only through waking.
So, you’re here, you don’t want to be but you are. Fuck it. What could you do right here right now that’d make this ride more enjoyable?
What could you learn?
Try that.
–FOOL
