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?

Why Following Trends Can Hold You Back

‘... it’s better to rock what actaully suits you, rather than what everyone else is doing just because it’s ‘in.’ Don’t follow trends if they don’t look good on you. Dare to think for yourself and be honest about what you see in the mirror.’– Amber Rose

You know yourself better than anyone else. You know what you want to achieve in your life.

Just because everyone else is doing something doesn’t make it right. If you do not know why people are doing what they are doing, do not do it. Why is that? Because you do not know where they are going. You don’t even know why they are doing what they are doing.

There is a gap between where you are and where you want to be. You are the only person who is going to narrow it. No one is going to narrow it for you.

If where you are is not working for you, you can beat your own path for yourself. Do not do what others are doing. Do what works, not what is popular.

Because you are not here to follow people. You are here to follow yourself, to beat your path, to make a difference, to change the world. Do not be scared. Now go beat your own path.
