Anyone who is saying this is lying to you. The reality is that you only die once and you have the gift to breathe and live every day.
Once you’re able to breathe, you got all the tools you need.— Wallace Peeples
If you today woke up and breathe you have got everything to make things happen on your own terms.
Go out there and eat the world from there. Try new things that you didn't do yesterday.
Forgive yourself for missing the thousands of days that were opportunities to learn, to be better, to make the progress.
You are not late. You are at the right time as long as you continue breathing and living.
Figure out your meaningful things
No everyone had or will have the opportunity to have clarity in his life from the very beginning.
I grew up with no clues about what things make me really happy. I didn't know what things were meaningful to me. It’s not my fault and nobody else either.
Everybody faces different battles. Our mission is to figure what things add meaning to our life.
By doing things every day a little differently you will find them at some point in this process.
Forgive yourself
If you are like me who realized a little bit late about these things don't beat yourself up. Forgive yourself, be kind to yourself.
You need to start out healing your mind and soul.
Once you have done that, you can’t imagine how many open doors you will see that you weren't able to see before.
You have lost thousands of days which were opportunities to have the life you want. But this doesn't matter today. Just forgive yourself and start from scratch.
Experiment a little bit more
Don’t be scared by doing new things every day. Simple things like greeting someone you never does it will make feel better.
I usually run the same route. I mean, I run the same street every day. But today I decided to change it a little bit.
This little change brought a huge new experience to my life. I saw new people, new childhood friends.
This new route did new thoughts born in my mind.
Experiment little by little, step by step. Don’t hurry up. What really matters is you feel differently than yesterday.
Final Thoughts
You don't live once. You only die once but live every day. So make the most of today.
Don’t be afraid to do things a little differently than yesterday. Change something little like walk a little bit more, take new routes, greet people you usually don't.
Figure out what things make feel fulfillment through experimentation.
Remember this simple but powerful fact. If you are able to breathe you have got all the tools you need to make things happen.
