How far ahead can you think?
 
Is your situation today based on the time spectrum you can make decisions?
 
Things like saving, career, business, health and fitness etc etc...
 
Fitness wise, you are not where you are today based on decisions you make.
 
Last week? Nope it’s what you did months ago, six, twelve, years ago...
 
Finance wise... similar...
 
Where you live... similar...
 
How far ahead can you think? What do you do when a short term temptation poisons your decades ahead? Or what short term pain will result in long term gains...
 
I have done this most of my life... When my friends were partying I was working, for myself.  Many New Years eves I watched midnight clock over while sitting at my desk, in my room, writing software with a bigger dream...
 
Mates would run past my office windows trying to convince me to come play... but I knew if I delayed the gratification I could play a much bigger and more fun game down the track...
 
To move from the city and one day live on the beach...
 
To one day work from home...
 
To one day make everyday a holiday and everyday do what I love in exchange for money...
 
To live where I wanted to spend my spare time...
 
I have been doing all of this for 10-15 years... But... I could not follow the majority... I could not do what I was told... I had to get comfortable with being uncomfortable... I had to see the future as greater and believe it to be true... But most of all I had to back myself... Back myself that I could work it out...
 
I have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and tens of thousands of hours on the wrong stuff... But, I know I can always work it out...
 
How? because I don’t stop until I do. I surround myself with people I can talk openly to, I help others see magic in them self and I enjoy the ride with other like minded people...
 
So, play everyday AND... Make decisions with a long term view. Especially the big decisions.
