No one knows tomorrow! It's a fact we all know and appreciate. Our inability to predict the future is something that comes with both up and downsides.
To me, another way to describe the future is to call it "uncertain". You just can't tell, you just can't predict, you can only plan so it doesn't look like you've set yourself up for disaster or as some may say, you planned to fail. Moreover, you can only hope so that it doesn't wallow in the seemingly hopeless situation of the world today.
So, in my letter to my 31-year-old self, I wish to swim in the ocean of optimism. Let's begin:
In 5 Years, I should be a Father & a Husband
My last attempt to get married was cut short by myriads of unfortunate events that came with mixed feelings some important experiences and lessons. But it's okay, I'll try again.
Yea! Within now and the next 5 years, I'm optimistic that my tries will yield good results. So, in the spirit of optimism, in five years there should be a Chukwudi Jr. in existence.
In 5 Years, I should own a Start-up
Trust me, it's not easy setting up a successful business, I've tried time and again and again and again. I've gone the extra mile, but for the now, nothing is really clear.
I feel, that most of my failures are a result of inexperience, and experiences come with time, and one thousand, eight hundred and twenty-five days is more than enough time to learn, build and grow. So, watch out!
In 5 Years, I Should be a Whale
Please, not a big fish! I mean, someone with a massive amount of staked Hive. Whales are not made in a day, and 5 years, is enough time to be one. Even if it's a tiny whale, a whale is a whale!
Just hoping that Hive remains relevant by that time!
In 5 Years, I should be more Responsible
Yea, this is a goal! There are numerous dimensions of being responsible, I just want to be responsible in all rounds. At least, be able to take up some manly responsibilities, and maybe, become more responsible to some persons. This may look a little too vague, and that is true, because, there is a lot wrapped into it.
Final Words
That will be all for now, I just want to conclude with a few words: "So, help me, God!"
