We settle way too much, We throw around time as if we have an unlimited stash of it. But our time is so valuable. More valuable than some of us realize.
You are going to die one day.
It's so scary think about really. But it's going to happen. But would you want to regret how you lived?
We seem to think we can keep waiting until “Next Year”. But one day there won't be a next year.
Stop Settling
Sure if you have kids and a family, This is a harder one. To a certain degree you always have some kind of responsibilities and expectations from those people. But too many people are settling for jobs they hate, And life situations they don't want to put up with. They get so caught into chasing “happiness”. That they forget that they can be happy right this second! Instead they settle in situations they don't like.
If something in your life is causing you so much discomfort, Find a way to escape. It's not worth your time to sit and suffer when your life is so short.
There Are Opportunities!
People often settle because they don't see another way.
If you don't see another way you aren't exploring, And you aren't seeing enough.
I always feel overwhelmed by the crazy abundance of opportunities. Everytime I feel “Stuck”. I start to look for something new!
I always find something eventually.
You waste time by settling and not trying new things, Because you could find an opportunity that could make you 10x happier. And give you a much better outcome.
Think long term, Short term. What benefits are you getting from everything that you do? What kind of benefits can you get from switching it up.
10 Minute Adds Up
Some people complain that they want to do something but they just “Don't Have Time.” But then those are the same people easily throwing away 10 minutes.
I like to joke, That I started my business in 1 hour.
Because thats kind of what happened.
I'd have an hour before I'd leave for work. So I worked on my business. I'd go to work, And come home so freaking exhausted. So Again, I'd do my best to get a little work done even though I felt brain dead. I didn't become “Self Employed” Overnight. It was over a year and a half of consistent effort. So even if you have 10 minutes. Start typing that book, Heck do it on your phone! That way there is no excuse you can't pull the “ I forgot my laptop” excuse.
Either that 10 minute becomes your future book, Business, Or dream career, Or it's wasted. Which would you rather have?
