Who you are today is not who you are going to be tomorrow. Your future-self is who you want to become.

To get there, you must take care of today. Whatever it is you are doing today, if it is not getting you closer to where you want to be, it is taking you away from it.

To make your future-self happy, you must get out of your safe-zone. Why is that? Because doing the same thing won’t get you there. To get something new, you must think differently. You must take risks, purposeful ones.

To make your future-self happy, you have got to be yourself. Because if you are not yourself, you are not going to get to where you want to be. You need your real self, not the one you are faking.

To make your future-self happy, you must build your life from a place of love. Because where there is love, nothing is impossible.

Finally, to make your future-self happy, you have got to be comfortable with yourself. You are enough. Be comfortable with yourself.

Isn’t that enough? What else do you want?

Whether we are comfortable with it or not, change is here to stay. It is not going anywhere.

Instead of fighting change, you have got to get comfortable with being uncomfortable.

When it comes to change, you have got to be comfortable with it. You have got to make yourself comfortable with change. Because life is change. And change is life.

If you are not changing, then you are resisting it. Don’t do that, my friend. Because resisting change is not the way forward.

The only way forward, no matter how tough, how difficult, is to embrace change. It is to say, ‘Change, I am all in.’ Because change is always calling.

When it calls, don’t say no. When you say no to change, you are saying no to life, to your growth, to your success.

When it calls, pick up the phone. Do not say, ‘I am not ready, I can’t.’ Embrace it.

You are embracing change when you are not scared to change your mind, when you are open to new opportunities.

You are embracing change when you are not intimidated by your own mind, when you are willing to take a calculated risk.

When change is calling you, don’t resist it. Follow it. Explore it. Lean into it. And learn from it.

When change is calling, do not say, ‘I am okay. I do not want to deal with change right now.’ If you do, you are promoting the status quo. You are just hiding behind your fears.

You do not want to face your reality. And that is what change is all about. It is about facing reality.

When you are faced with a major change in your life, don’t resist it. Don’t get upset. Don’t get depressed. Don’t fill your life with change resisters. It won’t help you.

Because change will never stop calling you. The best solution is to pick up the phone, is to say, ‘yes, I am here.’ The question is, ‘Will you?’
