Predicting the future can be an uphill task indeed, especially when it comes to your own future. But then, no one knows you better than yourself. You know what you are going through in life and as a result, you can project what you believe will happen within the coming years.
When it comes to predicting if you are a go-getter and someone that regularly goes after your dreams, it can be quite easy to pinpoint where you will be in the coming years. You are sure of your capabilities and know that if you do certain things in a certain way, then you will get to a certain point. That is as far as you are not lying to yourself. On the flip side though, if you sit back and relax, hoping for life to happen to you, you’ll most likely be among those who prefer to say things like “no one knows tomorrow” and use it as an excuse not to work.
Right from a young age, I’ve always wanted the good life. Not really the fancy life, like supercars and lavish lifestyle. No. I have just always wanted to be able to achieve whatever I wanted. No matter how expensive it may be. And for someone like me that doesn’t really want a lot of things, it has never really seemed like a difficult task. However, when I started the journey toward that point in my life, the scales fell from my eyes and I could see clearly that it was very much difficult.
I’ve come a long way from the young student that wrote his stories in a forty leaves notebook, hoping I would be able to convince my classmates to read it and provide valuable feedback and not the usual, “wow! Next one please…”
I am now earning from my writing, handling clients on a daily basis, and also with my blogging that has become a part of my life. I am doing something I love and earning a living from it, one would say I’m living the dream, right?
Not yet. Because life is still tough! It seems that every time I get a little raise, the economy gets a little worse, and the extra money goes back into the system that does not even care about me in the first place. But still, I dare to dream, and I dare to hope. I still set my goals and I still push forward to achieve them.
One of my goals for this year was to publish my book, and I started writing it. I’m almost done with that, and I’m hoping to have it ready for publishing by the middle of the year.
When I look at the things I’ve achieved now, I know that I can do a whole lot more. So, if I am to predict my future, I will most likely see myself doing way better than I am doing currently.
I would no doubt be a multiple #1 bestselling author across many categories, and my books will not just be in online stores. There will also be audio versions and paperback forms. And then, I will also write movies and series, this is one dream of mine. Although so far I have not started anything to push me in that direction. My main focus for now is getting published.
Also, I see myself growing on this Hive platform. And this growth encompasses followers, Hive Power, and general influence. I want to be known across the blockchain so that when my name is mentioned anywhere people will know who they are talking about.
But then, as for things like relationships and the like, I will rather leave all that in the hands of God. I guess time will tell how all that will turn out. Because for now, my main focus is to gain some stability in my life and be able to take proper care of myself.
There are so many things I want for myself in the nearest future, and many of them seem farfetched. But I know myself, and I am certain I can do them. It is only a matter of time. I have proven time and again that I can do whatever it is I put my mind to, and there is no force that can stop me. I will certainly get to that point in my life where the prices of things will no longer concern me, that point that I will have to employ an accountant just to keep my books for me.
But no pressure, no rush. We all will get there someday. As Falz said, “permanent site no far, with consistency.”
It’s only a matter of time.
