Leave the Future Behind | manifesto
Most of us spend our days dreaming of the future; wasting the time we have now thinking of the time we’ll have tomorrow.
Letting this moment pass us by so we can romanticize another.
Tossing and turning in your shoebox dorm because you can’t wait to move on to bigger things.
But no one got where they wanted to be simply dreaming of the bigger picture.
They got there by seizing every day, every minute, and every second.
Treating every moment alive like the gift it is.
It’s about the small moments that might seem insignificant right now.
The spontaneous opportunities when you slip on your shoes before rushing out the door.
The random strolls down grocery aisles,
hallways,
and sidewalks.
These are the moments when lifelong connections and great realizations are made.
So leave the future behind, and let this moment take you.
