I see myself as someone who will now be constantly re-evaluating what I am doing NOW, not preparing for some hypothetical future.



Ohhhhhh, thanks for this. It resonates particularly with me, as S. and I are deciding whether we want to be married to each other. I find myself all too focused on the goal - the marriage, the kids, the beautiful house - and not enough on the steps it takes to get there. I feel so impatient to get there already that I'm tripping over my own cloddy feet, which are most definitely IN MY WAY.

Patience, focus on the now, yes, thank you.
