Life is a funny thing. The more time one has, the easier it is to be idle and live in the future. An active mind incessantly burns neural tissue. A passionless person has no avenue for this activity. Thus the common route is to follow and observe. To "be like" another in image and thought. Following is gross. "Liking" is a waste.
How about instead you live with this in mind:
Eliminate the off-switch
Burn neural tissue with your passion
Fuel the burn
Burn it down
Life is energy. Action burns energy in a chosen direction. Productive idleness restores energy. More action leads to more living.
Create an external driver
Your life should burn inspirational gasoline
Your life should fill the gas tanks of the young
Movement is a vehicle for learning and progress.
Instead of "I can't," ask yourself "how can I... dreams are clues, if they promote potential and possibility you must find a way.
The transformation you seek happens via your outlook.
Define what makes you. I am ____________.
Remember/realize that the future is an empty oasis. You must do the work that is in front of you. Day by day. You become the work. You become your persistence.
Live simple.
Train hard.
Live an honest life.
... then you are free.
