Some people say that we will have time to chase our dreams later. When the responsibilities are few and we get what we are currently lacking (money, time, courage, freedom, etc.)
Sometimes, who whisper these words are not others around us, but ourselves. We put a great deal of effort to trick ourselves into believing that “later” is always a good option or even the only option we have.
These are lies.
Life is like a good weekend. It will be over before you can realize it.
There’s no time. And if you are not living your dream life today, right now, you’re already late, because you don’t know how much time you have left.
Even in the best case scenario, living a long and healthy life, this is not that much time anyway.
Making the required changes to start walking in the director of your dream life doesn’t have to start with a traumatic experience (illness, the loss of a loved one, etc.) and you don’t have to make a 180° turn or turn your life upside down. That common belief that we must burn our life to the ground in order to build a new one is a myth we have clung ourselves to in order to avoid taking action.
You can take a single step towards that life every day. After 365 days, you’ll be amazed by the transformative power of that constant, single step.
If your choices have led you to a life full of things and experiences you don’t want, how could you expect that this will be fixed solely by time? Time doesn’t heal if we don’t choose to heal first; in the same way, time will not change anything of we do not make the choice of changing our circumstances by ourselves.
Time is an amplifying force, but it will not transform our reality by itself. That’s our job.
Don’t wait any longer for something to happen, for something to change, cause nothing will at least we make it happen, at least we change first.

True and powerful. Our future dream life consists of the present.
That’s right my friend!
It’s so true. As we choose to change, ask for guidance, take action on that guidance, even if nothing around us changes, through baby steps we change, our perception changes about our immediate world, and that’s where the fun begins! Good post!
I’m glad you liked it Christina!

That’s right, great quote!
Spot on Julio! Someone once said, “It’s not the person without a cent that is poor but the person without a dream.”
So true! It is a wonderful gift to dream but action speaks louder than the dream!
