NothingSpecial #1 - Just do it or don't...

in #life7 years ago

Just do it now or don't, but be aware of don't.

Doing it is hard, it takes effort, whatever you do it takes effort, and effort is hard.

Not doing is easy, you can just lay in bed and you successfully didn't do it, it's easy.

But be aware of easy.

Easy seems like a better choice right now, just don't do it, save your face, don't embarrass yourself.

You can watch TV, YouTube or Netflix all day, that is easy and you can't fail at it.

No effort spent by doing nothing and there is no failure.

There is nothing wrong with this behavior.

We are built to avoid failure and to preserve energy, it helped us to survive.

In the past, this behavior was necessary in order to survive.

We only needed to spend enough energy to get food and water.

And after that, we are set for hours until we get hungry and thirsty again.

But now we evolved beyond it, beyond survival.

We live longer, and surviving is easy.

Getting food and water is too easy.

So we don't need to do much.

But today did you actually lived if you only live easy?

If you just lay in bed and watch entertainment just to get through a day. 

If you delay your dreams and hobbies because it takes effort and you don't feel like it.

There is a danger, in the modern age.

The longer you live, the more you regret not doing.

You will always regret something, but some will regret more and some will regret less.

And now life is more about regretting less than surviving. 

Regretting not exercising.

Regretting not doing hobbies.

Regretting not making changes.

Regretting not going for your dream job.

Regretting not making your own decisions.

Regretting not talking to the cute girl/guy in a bar.

Sure not doing it is easy, and doing it is hard.

But regret will slowly accumulate with age and it will kill you slowly.

Regret is harder on the soul than doing.

Doing will give you a better fulfilling life.

You will surely fail, but success will outshine failure.

Be aware of don't, regret is a silent killer.
