Theres nothing wrong with looking to the future but you can’t forget to enjoy the present. Theres nothing wrong with enjoying the present but you have to be in the midst of working towards a better future. I saw a video that I’ll post in a bit that dove into this topic in some detail and inspired this post. You can’t be too in tune with the present because in my humble opinion thats when niggas start getting a little too comfortable. Comfort scares the shit outta me even more so than the future ever could. Taking a risk and failing is scary but seeing yourself in the same place stagnant while others move forward is even scarier. You have to have a vision of what you see yourself doing in the future and become one with that vision. Your present should have remnants of the future in the now.
Your present life should day by day look more and more like that vision of the future. If it doesn’t then you just need to make moves that’ll get you closer to that reality. It takes time so don’t be a fucking dickhead and start to rush because nothing good comes from it. Trust me, I know from experience. The present is a gift that should be cherished, enjoyed and most importantly respected because you could easily lose it all tomorrow or lose it today while you’re in the middle of it. With all that being said though just make sure you’re working towards that wondrous tomorrow you’ve dreamt for yourself. Your dreams aren’t just that; They’re goals. Get to work and make them happen. Ain’t nobody gone make your dreams come true except you. If you don’t then someone will hire you to help make theirs a reality.
