Time Is Passing Whether You're Using It Or Not

By a friend • August 7, 2019

Imagine today in 2029 - 10 years from now. You will still be you, except you will have changed.

Think back the 2009 version of you and I bet you will struggle to recognise that person. Regardless of whether you are consciously changing - you are changing whether you want to or not.

We overestimate what we can achieve in a week and underestimate what we can achieve in a year. Habits are easy to stick to while we're in the ‘honeymoon week' but the real change occurs when you try stick to them for a year.

In 10 years time you will be living a completely different life. You may start a family or be on a new career path and you may even be the boss of your own company.

Don't get stuck in the trap of "sorting things out later" or thinking that you have tonnes of time. We are already 60% of the way through 2019 and the year will be over before you know it. Start by improving 1% per day and it will compound. Over a year you will grow and over 10 years you will create big things.

Time will pass whether you're using it or if you're not. Choose to use your time.
