Right now!

Stop bullshitting yourself.

If you're over the age of 17, who you are now is who you're going to be for the rest of your life. 

What you're doing right now, how you're living your life is most likely how you'll be living it 20 years from now.

I've read this over and over again in books and articles, and it can be pretty depressing. 

I said, "It can be." 

It can be, if you're not happy with what you're doing right now. 

Me? I'm not stuck in some job that I've been in for years, saying things like, "I'll be here only until______ (fill in the blank with your own excuse), and then I'll be doing what I really want to do--which ISN'T this job."

I'm doing what I love, every day. Not just some of what I love every day, after getting through the shitty parts. I love what I do. Every day.

Can you say that? 

In fact, Dan and I can both say that. 

Why? Because we've pursued what we love, worked hard to get the jobs and are now doing them. They don't feel like jobs. They feel like fun that we get paid for.

We didn't make excuses and bullshit ourselves with reasons for not getting what we wanted and doing what we love.

And when we're not working, we're living life fully, every day. Can you say that?

Why not? 

Good luck.
