It's time to stop reading this website, now!

Hey, you! Yes, I am talking to you!

I know there is something you think you should be doing, and you regret not
|
|
|
|
starting doing it those ten-or-something years ago. Surely, you would be so
|
|
|
|
good at it by now!
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well... what if I told you to start right now?

After all, the best time to `<placeholder/>` was 10 years ago, the next best
|
|
|
|
time is now.

I know that you know what procrastination is, and I know you are guilty of it
|
|
|
|
too. Moreover, I know that there is something you would like to do, but for
|
|
|
|
some reason you just never happen to start doing it.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No, it's not just you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm like that as well, it's quite natural really.

Most people think like "I'll start on Monday" or "I'll start on New Year". They
|
|
|
|
get ambitious and do it for maybe a few days or so, weeks if lucky, and then
|
|
|
|
they stop doing it. Then they feel guilty about it, and go back to square one.

I keep seeing people like this all the time. Well, let me reveal a spoiler for
|
|
|
|
you.

The reality is that this will never work. This cycle simply *never* worked. If
|
|
|
|
you want to do something you can't pick some magical date away in the future,
|
|
|
|
and expect to just magically click, just as if you entered some "golden age" in
|
|
|
|
your life. All this really is just a different form of procrastination, that's
|
|
|
|
why it will never work for you, as it never did for anyone else, ever.

Do you want to know how to really get it done?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do it immediately. I mean it, get up and do it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You want to start exercising? Start right now.
|
|
|
|
You want to start writing? Write the first page today.
|
|
|
|
You want to start drawing? Draw right now, anything.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And keep doing it every day.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can't expect the world to give you a sign to do whatever it is you think
|
2024-02-28 18:22:45 +01:00
|
|
|
you should be doing. You can't expect anyone to help you carve your own way
|
|
|
|
ahead. Furthermore, you have to decide on your own it is something you ought to
|
|
|
|
be doing, and then you should just be doing it.

The day you start actually doing the thing, is the day you finally do it.
|

走れ!
