I was asked recently, if you found out you had only one more year to live, what would you change about the way you were living. And the first thing I thought was, I would do more.
I would do more German, I would travel, I would spend more time with my friends, I would skype more, I would just do more.
I would do yoga, I would do push ups. I would do more.
There are so many minutes of my day I sit around, but I would use them.
I know it may be idealistic to say, I’d change everything, but when I was sitting at home, I would do yoga, or I would practice German.
I would make macaroons again.
I would just do more and more and more.
I want to be that person who people look at and say, wow. I want to be that person, where people say, oh her? She’s doing [insert blank]. I want to be known for my actions. I want to have thoughts and then act on them. I want to be the person I want to be in my dreams. There’s no reason to wait, to stop, to say I don’t have the time. I want to use the time. I want to make time. I want to invest the time in a better me, into the best me I can.
I really want to take this idea into the New Year. This year I want to do more.
