Someday, you and your future self will have a conversation.
Will it be a celebration, or a painful regret?
The outcome of the convo would depend on what you’re doing with your life now.
If you’re investing your time energy and resources into building yourself now…
The conversation would end in laughter and cheers.
Your future self would give you props for making it easy for it to locate you, and thank you for not giving up before it came.
But…
If you’re wasting your life now.
Omo, the conversation no go funny o.
Cos when your future self asks you what you’ve been doing with your life,
But you can’t even say a thing to justify your reckless living…
Na there the pain go tey start.
It’s then you’ll realize how you had all the time to develop yourself ( physically, mentally and emotionally)
But…
You discarded it and procrastinated till the last day.
And the bad news is
You can’t run away from the consequences of your recklessness.
And the realization that you could’ve prevented the consequences if you only you had been serious with your life…
Damn!
It’ll fvck up your emotions really hard.
It’s just like realizing you used a shovel ( time) to dig yourself into a pit, while others used theirs to dig ridges and planted seeds in em.
What’s worse than setting yourself up for regrets?
NOTHING!
Omo, you won’t be this young and agile forever o.
So you better invest your youth in building a life that’ll keep you sane, healthy, and sharp later.
You don’t want to be slaving for others when you should be retiring and enjoying your old age.
Poor planning and preparation while in your youth will result in a frustrating and suffocating old age.
Omo, life go tire you.
But then, it’d be you living the effects of the lifestyle you’re leading now.
Wait…
Don’t get me wrong.
Investing your youthful energy, time, and resources to build your life now doesn’t mean you can’t or shouldn’t have fun while at it o.
Shey you get.
You can play and have fun too, but…
Don’t get carried away from your goals.
Use your brain o.
Stay Sharp!
