10 Life Choices You Will Regret In 10 Years And How To Avoid It by Ikemsgee: 7:08pm On Aug 21, 2016
1. Being Lazy And Slacking. Remember you came into
this world to fulfill your
destiny. Do not expect the
world to give you a handout,
you have to work hard for it.
Stop wasting your time on prayers and thinking
something is going to fall
from the sky for you. You
need to “get up, get out and
get something!” Take full
responsibility of your life because as Obama eloquently
put it “Change will not come if we
wait for some other person
or some other time. We are
the ones we’ve been waiting
for. We are the change that
we seek.” 2. Waiting Until Tomorrow
Before You Do It. Tomorrow is not promised,
but you already knew that.
We often at times deceive
ourselves into thinking that
we have a lot of time ahead
to get to it, but happens? One day you will wake up and
realize all the time you
thought you had is no more.
Two options await you;
accomplish your goals now or
give your excuses on why you couldn’t do what you have
always wanted to do. 3. Hiding Your True
Identity To Impress The
World. You spend too much time
living the life that others
want you to live. Your whole
existence is just a cover up
of who you are, but how long
are you going to hide? When you spend time trying to
please others you eventually
forget about pleasure
yourself. People are going to
judge you no matter, so why
not do what’s in your heart? You don’t have to be perfect
for others to accept you. Photo: TEDx, Anas Aremeyaw/Facebook 4. And Allowing Someone To
Build Your Dreams For
You. A wise man once said, “the
greatest challenge in life is
discovering who you are, and
the second greatest is being
happy with what you find.”
How can you persevere through this challenge if you
are living others dreams?
You might be called crazy at
times but some of the things
that you do, but do not worry
it only means that you are walking your own true path. 5. Easily Giving Up. Failures are part of life. If
you don’t fail, you don’t learn.
If you don’t learn you will
never grow. Never throw in
the towel even when the end
seems far fetched. Success is connected with action
because successful people
are simply those who kept
going. They made mistakes
but it did not stop them. It’s
a gradual step, but you have to keep grinding if you want
to see the finish line. 6. Avoiding Change. If you want to know your
past just take a look at your
present, what did yesterday
got you to where you are
today. In that same vein, if
you want to know your future, just take a look at the
actions you are currently
taking. If something is not
adding up, NOW is the best
time to make adjustments
not tomorrow. 7. Being Selfish And An
Egomaniac. When you are no more people
will not remember what you
gave them, but how you made
them feel when they were
around you. What do you
want your tombstone to say? What you do for yourself will
die with you, but what you do
for others will continue to
live on forever. 8. Keeping Negative
Energies Around You. Never let someone’s bad
aroma drown you. Don’t let
negative and naysayers get
to you. Remember they have
no real influence on you until
you give them the power to. When you rid yourself of
negativity, you evolve into a
positive character. You love
instead of hate, you become
generous instead of greedy
and the world wins! 9. Taking Life Too
Seriously. Somethings you have to kick
your feet up, relax and let
life happen without you
trying to put everything in its
rightful order. You don’t
have to always know where you are going, what matters
is that you get going. Life at
it is is in its perfect harmony
whether you understand it or
not. Sometimes it might take
a while before you are able to connect the dots, and that’s
OK. 10. Settling For Less Than
You Deserve. The minute you settle for
less than you deserve, you
get even less than you
settled for. Life is not about
how many times you fall
down. It’s about how many times you get back up. Never
ever settle!
