Remembering Tomorrow
There were days that I wish I could just drink myself silly and buy everything that I wanted to buy. I did none of those. I do my best to maintain discipline and stay focus on my goals. It gets really tough when I am having a rough day.
What stops me from going off the rails? I always thought about tomorrow. If I fail to maintain discipline today, tomorrow will be slightly more difficult. As the difficulty stacks, the more I want to give up. It is a vicious cycle. Eventually, I know I will live a life of regrets.
Life is never meant to be easy; it is a not a bug but a feature. In the heated moments where you want to throw in the towel, think about tomorrow. Will you wake up and filled with remorse? It only takes one second to give up, but a lifetime to feel regret.
Whenever you are tempted to give up your discipline, remember to remember tomorrow.
