“I´ll do it one day” we often say, hoping that “something magical”can happen or that “a divine help will come”, or else, that something extraordinary suddenly occurs so that our dream can come true without effort. It is a common human trap, “waiting for something magical” to happen only delays your journey and diminishes your power of creating the life you truly envision.
![Your future is built in the present. What you do today will have a significant impact in your future. Build habits today that your future self will be grateful for.](https://youtomic.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/a-captivating-typography-design-featuring-a-torn-w-WD7_w8cbTQOv4USa0ufljg-4YN0Es5_Se6GWgWGPyrE6Q-576x1024.jpeg)
“That magical thing” will not come to our life unless we put time, energy and plenty of work from ourselves in the first place. The fruits that we will reap tomorrow will be shaped by the choices and actions we make today: recognising the critical link between the actions we take in the present and the life we dream in our future is essential. The present is the only time of power in which we can influence any time ahead. Do not delay your decisions as the old saying reads: “if you wait for tomorrow, it will come and if you don’t wait for tomorrow, it will also come”.
Influence your present to build your future.
While it is important to have desires and dreams about our future life, nonetheless, it is crucial to recognise that the best way to create our future is by paying attention to what we do in the present. Now is the moment to take those conscious and intentional steps towards the direction of our goals and building a positive trajectory ahead: choose thoughts, use words and take actions which your future self will be grateful for.
Therefore, focus in our present activities is key in order to grow and give meaning to our life. Even taking small but consistent steps in the present which are aligned with our values and beliefs will make a significant impact over time. Set clear goals in mind will shape our present mindset and improving our performance, empowering our attitude of proactiveness towards the trajectory of our life, nurturing healthy habits.
In conclusion, the secret of tomorrow is hidden in our present thoughts, words and actions, shaping our current reality. Taking responsibility for our present circumstances exactly as they are is the first step. Once we welcome and embrace our current circumstances, we can then start to proactively work towards our goals and desires instead of naively “waiting for tomorrow”. Breaking down larger goals into manageable tasks and start implementing smaller actions now is an intelligent approach.
