Why you should NOT live every day like it's your last!
For a long time I listened when people would say, you got to live everyday like it's your last.
This left me broke, because I was constantly gambling. This left me frustrated, because I had built nothing, and worst of all, this left me feeling like a failure.
Since I've started back at wealthy affiliate, and I quit living everyday like its my last, I've quit gambling, I've started to post an article more than 4 times a week, and I feel like I'm on to something big.
Instead of living each day like it was the end, I've switch my thinking to living each day like it's a new beginning. Excited to learn more about my niche, with the enthusiasm of a child to just start something.
Instead of constantly feeling like I'm running out of time and I won't be able to finish what I start before my times up, I feel relieved to know that I can move forward each day and pick-up where I left off.
Living everyday like it's your last will do nothing but create inconsistency, and procrastination. Maybe I'm alone here, but if I don't fully believe I can finish something, it's hard to keep putting in work.
When you're living everyday like it's your last, you constantly feel like you're running out of time, and if you're not making commissions now then you never will.
But, if you begin to live every day like its the beginning, the passion, curiosity, and enthusiasm will lead to greater consistency, without being worried if whether or not you can finish.
My final thoughts come down to this. I'm logging into wealthy affiliate everyday with the enthusiasm I had when I first signed up. Ready to start something.
Whether it's a new article, completing some of the training, or maybe even just learning more about my niche, I'm going to focus on the road ahead, not thinking I'm coming up on a dead end

Thanks for sharing Brandyn!
Yes, people come up with catchy phrases and people don't stop to really think about the real meaning or consequences.
Have a great week ahead!
