Is the Perfect Day Ever Going to Come?

One day... ??

Isn't that what our brain is usually thinking? No matter who we are. ??

One day all stars will be aligned and the perfect moment will strike. ?

However, how many of us know that is never going to happen? ??

But we still hope it will. ??

As James Cameron once said: hope is not a strategy. ???

If you want to start eating healthier but you put it off until tomorrow, the question would be, why not today? Even worse, some people wait for that day called Monday. ??

If you are not excited to make a change, why even make it? ????

For example, I'm not going to start reading books if that's not something I enjoy. Sure, it is good for us but I prefer to listen to audiobooks. ??

There are more than 1000 ways of eating (call them diets) and someone still picks one that they don't enjoy. Quite puzzling, isn't it? ???

Now, what does this have to do with the quote? How does changing ourselves improve the world? ??

Simple. ??

When we are the best versions of ourselves we give the best to the people around us as well. ??

Imagine how you'd answer someone who's asking you the question "why" about 5 times in the following scenarios:

1. when you're anxious that you need to work on an important project ??

2. when you're in that weekend mood when you know you can do whatever you like and life seems so enjoyable ??

And the only difference is the state that we are in. It's not as if we have any other different capabilities. ????

The truth is that we make the world better when we are becoming better ourselves. ??

What got us to our current level in life will probably not get us to the next level. Even Mario had to do at least 2 power-ups before being able to get rid of obstacles easier. ??

But you can think that you can finish Mario without eating a mushroom as well, right? ????

Sure, but the truth is that you can also eat only rice or sleep 5 hours a night for the rest of your life and live, but is that really ideal? ??

As a person with gluten intolerance, I'd rather not consume it for the people around me as much as for myself. I'm not transforming into a werewolf but I'm far from being close to my maximum potential. ?

If we know that of ourselves, wouldn't it be better if we took the right action starting today? ?????
