Today is Someday

Don’t wait

Someday, I’m going to travel the world.

Someday, I’ll be able to spend more time with my family.

Someday, I’ll have the luxury of sleeping in.

I’m going to write a book.

Sing in public.

Someday . . . insert whatever things you have been yearning for recently.

We all say things like that — though, of course, our goals may differ from one another.

We all ache for the time to come when we are going to go out on a limb.

Give ourselves a chance to live a dream, instead of tabling it for reality to take over.

But today is someday.

“Stop waiting for someday; someday is a myth. Don’t wait to have the time; start planning to make the time.” ~ Rachel Hollis

We never know how much time we have left, and yet, we all do this — put off things that really matter to us, waiting for some magical moment that is “just right.”

Stop. Waiting.

Don’t just make room for whatever dreams you ache for, either.

Act today.

Take the leap today.

Chase your dreams like you’re eight years old again and they’re the ice-cream truck on a hot summer day.

Sing that song in public in any way you can, even if it may not be on American Idol or Broadway just yet.

Take that first step.

Write the first chapter of that book.

Carve out the time and spend it with your family, no matter how many other things are weighing on your mind.

“Don’t be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Don’t get me wrong, I am not advocating for being irresponsible or not showing up for the commitments we have made, but we don’t have to do it all today.

All you have to do today is take that first step.

Make that first choice to create that dream as part of your reality.

Don’t wait to answer the call of your heart.

Don’t allow yourself to give up on those dreams, even if it’s harder than heck fire to make that first step.

Don’t just dream big.

Live big.

Someday is today, and you are the captain who steers the ship of your life. Which means you are the only one forcing yourself to wait.

“Stop looking for permission to pursue your dreams! They are YOUR dreams, and you don’t need a co-signer to chase them!” ~ Eric Thomas

Peace and love, y’all. ❤
