Don't live for 'someday'

I was having a conversation with a friend of mine the other evening and he was telling me about a trip he’s always felt called to go on. So I asked “when are you going?” And he said “ I’ll try and go next January “. I replied “so you are going next January?”

Don’t let the ‘someday’ happen to you. If you want to live by the ocean, make it happen. If you want to work for yourself, make it happen. If you want to travel, make it happen. If you want sell everything you own and move across the other side of the world, make it happen.

Now I know there will be plenty of people thinking “it’s not that simple, I have xyz to think about” and yes I agree, it’s not always that simple but if you want something bad enough you can make it happen. I’m not going to say “you only live once” because I don’t believe that to be true but I do believe you only live this life once so don’t let the fears or unknown hold you back. Don’t let the societal ‘norm’ and expectations keep you from following your dreams.

We’re not promised tomorrow, all we have is right now. The truth is, anything can happen at any given moment so don’t be one of those people who ends up saying “I wish” or “I regret”. Don’t live for someday... someday is now!
