Dear Lily:

It is my understanding that you  want to greatly improve your life but not longer look at your past. Focus instead on the now and make your life happen the way you want it to happen. Correct?

Notice your objectives- it takes only a few moments to think all those things you want to make happen. It takes ten minutes or so to type these objectives. This is the problem so many of us have: we think so fast, imagine so fast and easily, get excited… but the doing of those things, oh, that takes so much time. There is so much to do and so much waiting in between the doings and then… when nothing much changes, we give up.

There are different rules to doing that to thinking and imagining. One big rule is patience, a different concept of time. It is about focusing on the moment and not thinking about getting to the finish line. It is about removing the multitude of objectives from your vision and focusing on just one, or two.

And it takes dealing with that part of you that gives up, that wants to stop trying when the going gets tough.

What do you think about my reply so far?
