I don't have complete confidence in my future self. I don't know if I can trust him.
I often find it difficult to finish things, or even to continue with habits I've established. Starting a new endeavor is interesting, it's different, it's seductive. I love to begin. But it's tough to keep going.
I look back on the past year and I'm annoyed at the opportunities I didn't follow through with. I've made plans, and they haven't come to fruition. I haven't finished 200 PC yet. I haven't kept up my exercise regimen the way I wanted to. My "to-do" list is long, and many of the items on it are long in the tooth.
Part of the problem may be that I change as a person over the course of time. What I find interesting, what I want to spend my time on, is constantly evolving. I like to think this evolution is part of a continuous maturing process, and not due to increasing laziness.
How can I keep my future self on track, and locked onto the goals I hold right now? Do I actually want to?
Well, future self, I think we both want to be published authors, and since we share the same name, we can submit the same novel. So here, take what I've got so far and run with it. See you in the history books.
