Hopefully not cut you into little pieces as the Pink Floyd song suggests, but hopefully something. Anything at all that will get you started doing whatever it is that keeps you saying “one of these days…” about.
If you want to achieve anything in life, remove that phrase from the conversation; the conversation in your head, with your family, friends, and colleagues. Every conversation and instead say “today, I am going to…”
One of these days is like tomorrow; it never really comes and before you know it, it is 2020, you are married, inching closer to fifty and you’re full of regret because you’re doing the same old thing that you swore you were doing for the last time last year. Or, you are in the middle of a global pandemic, stuck at home in quarantine. If you are stuck at home isn’t that the best time to make one of these days today?
What is holding you back? Why not make the change today? If 2020 has taught us nothing else, it has taught us that life itself is unpredictable. You just never know what is going to happen. Life is too short and precious to spend living in regret and ignoring the things you really want to do.
I have been stuck in that mode many times in my life but I am happy to report that the previous paragraph is not the story of my life. At least it is not the whole story. At some point in my life, I stopped waiting for the right time to show up and I stopped saying “one of these days I’ll…” and I took action. Instead of waiting, dreaming, and talking, I started doing. And, I am so glad I did.
Nothing changes if nothing changes. You will never know what might have been if you keep telling yourself “one of these days…”
Start doing today and find out what’s waiting on the other side.
