You’re forgetting. I hate seeing it happen to you. The patterns are clear but you always fall down the same way you did before. You start to look ahead too much. Start asking yourself when tomorrow is going to come. You lie to yourself that when tomorrow do comes then you’ll be able to act the way you wanted to act. That somehow something about today was prohibiting you from acting like that now. Then tomorrow comes and there’s nothing really that special about it. You start to question why you spent all of yesterday waiting for today. You try and do anything that is unplanned and spontaneous, even if it means putting aside what you said you would do when today came. All so that you can feel something today. Then today passes and another tomorrow comes. The cycle continues. You wait for another one.

But how many tomorrows have come and gone already? How many times have you promised yourself that the next one will be different? The truth is, the change you’re waiting for isn’t tied to a day on the calendar. It’s tied to a decision—a single moment where you stop waiting and start doing. Where you stop believing that time will fix things for you and realize that it’s only you who can fix them.
Every time you put off action for tomorrow, you’re letting today slip through your fingers. And if you keep doing that, all you’ll have is a collection of wasted yesterdays. So don’t wait. Don’t look ahead. Don’t tell yourself you’ll start when the time is right. Because the time will never feel right—it’ll only ever feel like right now. And right now is the only thing you ever truly have.
