Mr. X is a great man. He has a good job, a girlfriend and a dog. He lives in a nice neighborhood in a pretty regular house. Every day he gets up at six, walks whit his dog, and when he returns drinks a nice cup of coffee. Then he gets in his car drives a half of an hour to his work. He recently promoted a level, which means he gets some more money. He works at an office. Then at five he returns home, eats the dinner his wife cooked, walks his dog again, and finally watches some TV before he goes to bed. And this is what he practically every day again, and again.
I would never want to live such a boring life. Where did the adventure, excitement, and risks, went to. And I’m pretty shore a lot of people don’t want to before they go to work. But for some reason most peoples, still end up somewhere on the third floor of an office, staring at a monitor all day. It looks almost like you live to work, work should be a tool to live. In my opinion there is still hope for you. The only thing you need is the guts to step out of the ordinary and do what you really want.
The first thing you need to admit your life sucks. Just like an addiction and all the other psychological problems, first admit it. Be honest to yourself; write down what you do on an average day. Then look at your list, does it look boring? Are you happy with what’s on the list? If the answers are yes, you need a change! (If the answers are no, congrats! keep on going!).
Now you know your life sucks, you can start thinking of what you want. Keep in mind, nothing is impossible, till you proved that it is. It could be some goal you want to reach (like changing the world), being a millionaire, or traveling around the world. I think everything you really want you can. And if not you can always return to your boring job, and try again in a couple of years.
When you have your plan, start doing it, take risks! Without risks your life won’t change. It will be the biggest risk you will ever take, but you have to. Look at what you need to get the life you want and get it.
I realize not many people will do this. But maybe you can change little things in your life. Start with little things, then some bigger things, and finally throw everything away, and start you new and perfect life! Be different, change your life!
