If You Want Something Tomorrow, You Need To Do Something Today
I often repeat one simple thought to myself:
if you want something tomorrow,
you need to do something today.
Not wait for the perfect moment.
Not postpone everything until Monday.
Just make at least one small step now.
It is easier for me to write a text
than to turn on the camera
and say a few words.
But if I want to move forward,
I need to learn not only to write,
but also to show myself as a real person.

Monday has barely started, but you are already thinking about Friday.
By Wednesday, you are counting how many days are left until the weekend.
On Friday, you finally relax, and by Sunday evening,
you already do not want to think about the week ahead.
I have lived like this more than once myself.
It Is Scary To Start Something New. But It Is Even Scarier To Change Nothing
Starting something new is almost always scary.
Because you do not know
what will happen next.
You do not know
if it will work.
You do not know
how other people will react.
But if you change nothing,
everything will stay exactly as it is now.
Recently, I have once again felt a strong desire to write,
work on the website and build something
that may be useful for our family in the future.
I know myself well enough to understand
that this kind of interest does not always stay equally strong.
This time, I do not want to spend it only on talking and planning.
When I was a child, it seemed that my mother always knew what to do
and my father could solve almost any problem.
I never wondered whether they were tired,
what they worried about
or how often they put their own plans aside because of us.
I began to understand many of these things only after becoming a father myself.
I Stopped Believing That Constant Exhaustion Is Normal
Feeling tired after a difficult day is one thing.
Waking up with no energy, waiting for the day to end
and still not feeling rested after sleep is something else.
For a long time, I explained it with age, stress,
moving abroad and having too much to deal with.
Eventually, I stopped telling myself that this was simply how all adults lived.
