We tend to idealize the past. Moreover, we love to dream about the future.
Of course, both these two attitudes are OK. But we usually forget about the present times. A lot of the people wait in abeyance between the past and the future. We are dreaming of many things. Often, we are convinced that the best days are ahead of us. Or, we think that the good old days were already in our life, in the dim and distant past. I was not the exception; I used to have a similar way of thinking. The fact is that I was often looking to the future and looking back to the past. Luckily, I do not do it anymore.
I believe that today is the best day of our life.
I am aware that all these things can sound a little bit naive. But, I am sure that there is no better day to start creating your way of life than today. Start building your reality connected with your dreams. If you want to paint – do it. If you are dreaming of making photographs every day – do it. Have you ever imagined being a writer? Start writing your own story today. I genuinely encourage you to become the master of your own time and life.
Do not wait for what the future will bring to you.
Stop blaming yourself that you did not start something in the remote past. Do not waste your precious time and energy on such useless activities.
The fact is that our dreams will not come to us unless we start to do something. For example, if you dream of becoming a famous photographer, do not wait to start taking pictures. Do not wait for enough funds to buy the newest camera on the market. Start taking photographs with your phone. Publish them (I honestly recommend you to create your website). Ask others for advice. Read. Study artworks of other genius artists. Seek possibilities. Seek inspirations.
Speaking shortly: forget about the good old days and the future. The time is now to start presenting your artistic way of life. I am waiting for the sublime fruit of your hard work. I wish you good luck in developing your creative style.
