Day 714 – Day 209 Q – Oct.4.20 – Life never happens the way you think

Drank the last few days. Stop playing scenarios in your head of what could happen. F*** ‘could’. It hasn’t and most likely won’t. Stay in the now. Today, this moment, in front of you. That’s what’s important. People play scenarios in their head all the time, whether positive or negative. But it only leaves you disappointed because life never happens the way you think. Ever. There’s always scenarios and moments you could never envision. Look at you. Did you ever think as a kid you’d be studying medicine in Scotland and then live as a VC in Amsterdam? No chance. This is just one example but life is so unexpected. The point of it is to enjoy the now. To push yourself to be better. To explore your curiousity. To make an impact on other people’s lives. That’s the way to do it but it still happens every day. Small changes, small habits over time give you the power to completely change your trajectory. Little things. But those little things happen in the moment. Do the work and be a better person every day. If you can do that, you’re always going to be happy.
