There are times when we sit all alone, thinking about the future—what will happen. And there are times when, even in a full crowd, we zone out and think about our past, only to realize that we can't do anything about what has already happened.
And we can't do anything about the future either if we keep dreaming about it without acting. Then we realize we need to start a process. Dreaming is good—it gives you confidence, but not the potential to achieve it on its own.
Wait… what are we talking about? Is it life?
Obviously, yes.
Life is all about birth, learning to walk, learning to talk, learning how to behave, going to school, running behind marks, setting a goal, getting a job that was never really in your plans, and doing it for a salary. Then marrying someone you might not even like, just to satisfy society… and then kids.
So the chain continues, repeating itself.
Are you stuck in this?
Yes, you are. Ask your inner self what he or she really wants. Reflect on yourself. Your inner child definitely had a dream—something he or she loved doing. Some people are obsessed with cameras, photography, sports, singing, cooking, or art.
So don’t lie to yourself. Don’t cheat your own inner self. There will always be something you are truly mad about—something you are deeply obsessed with.
Take a pause. Sit alone. Think about yourself. Your inner self knows you better than anyone. Listen to it.
My friend, life is not a chain or a cycle to follow blindly. Ask yourself why you are doing what you are doing right now.
Dear life, I need a break.
I want myself.
I want to discover the real me.
So… do you?
