We spend too much planning ahead and thinking and regretting about what we have done. Too much time, really.
I’m sweating like a pig while I write this. Is really hot these days where I am. I don’t know why I say this, I guess this blog will be even more personal than I thought when I began it.
Anyway, what I was talking about is there are only one thing that really matters, and that thing is called present. Doesn’t matter what have you done before, but you always can take a good decision in everything now.
I’m obsessed with the idea of do things that are beneficial to me in the mid-long-term, but I feel that I fail constantly on it. If by example, I decide to follow a very strict diet for a while, probably I can accomplish the goal 100%, but I could do it 99%, or 90%, or 60%. And that doesn’t mean you should give up in your goals.
If I decide to exercise daily during three months, or a year, or for life. If I skip a day, that doesn’t mean I should quit because I failed ONCE. You still can go next day and think: “Yey! Let’s go continue with my goal and continue working out!”
If you understand this, if you focus on do the right thing in the present despite what you have done last time, then you will suceed on whatever you want to accomplish. Is hard to be 100% strict, so, be flexible. Be water my friend!
