Some day we are all going to die. We don’t know when or how. Some of us fear this loss and the finality of it all, yet we forget to live while we are alive. When we think about what will really make us feel alive or feel joy, we put off actually doing those things. We think about it in terms of “someday”.
It goes something like this:
- Someday I am going to leave this crappy job and start my business.
- Someday I am going to go on the ultimate road trip.
- Someday I am going to get my shit together and leave this relationship that’s killing me inside.
- Someday I am going to quit my addiction.
- Someday I am finally going to write that novel.
The list is endless. We need to remind ourselves that “someday” is a disease that will take our dreams to the grave with us.
We are all here for a reason. There is something inside you that only you can bring to this world. All these things we categorize into “someday” are the things we should really be doing. Everyday. They are our passions and purpose.
If you found out today that you only had one year to live, what would you do? How would you live like you were dying? Would you take the chance like you have nothing to lose?
