Life In The Future

Here is the first thing that you all need to answer, Are you afraid or excited to your future
selves? Isn’t it scary to think ahead for your future? Some of us are not prepared to face
the future because of their present doings and actions and by these, your future will be
affected, that’s why you should have a firm right decisions. Obviously, all of us has
goals and dreams in our lives that we could fulfill someday right? That’s why choosing
the right choices and performing the correct things are very important when it comes
about your future. You may make silly jokes about it sometimes but I know that you
know within yourself that you have a determination to succeed someday.

Do you agree in the saying “What you do today affects your tomorrow”? Well, we cannot
conclude that it is true because it will always depend in you on how you handle the
situations today. That’s why you should be more aware and always be prepared for the
possible happenings that’s comes in your way. Do you know Manny Pacquiao? We’re
going to share to you his inspiring story. Before he came a rich person, he experienced
eating with no viand and he experienced living in a nipa hut but since he has a strong
determination, he was able to achieve his dreams and he became successful with his
career. He believed in his capabilities so he became a famous boxer which is also the
reason why he is very flourishing today. We hope that his story will inspire you to do
your best always in doing anything that you do.
Also throughout your journey, you will meet many and different people and its either
they are a blessing or a lesson, because people come and go right? You don’t know if
how long they will stay in your life. You cannot really assure yourself that all your
decisions that you are going to do are right. And there might be times that you
disappoint yourself because you fail to do that certain tasks of yours, then don’t lose
hope to do it again. Be more productive everyday to have a brighter future ahead. There
is one thing when it comes to our technologies today, we all know that we have a high
and modernized one. Do you think 5 to 10 years from now there would be new and
much higher discoveries? Are there times that you think about voice control cars? How
about glass mobile phones? And how about the trees, can you imagine that there will be
only few left behind and survived? What if there will be a new way kind of living for us?
Can you imagine that? I don’t think so. That’s why I can really say future is scary to face
and that’s the fact.

So starting today, you should put your best foot forward, because you will not know
what the future might bring you. You will experience a rollercoaster ride because there
are surely ups and downs in our lives and that’s the big challenge we should all take.
You may have mistakes and failures but it doesn’t define what will your future might be,
always keep in your minds that everything happens for a reason and take that as a
lesson not a hindrance to your success. Set high standards for your future; do not settle
for less because life is short. Live now and do whatever makes you happy before it’s too
late.
