There's always a big tendency for everyone to dream and dream big!
On the flip side, there's also a tendency for people to continually live in the past.
The former speaks of people living in the hopeful glories.
The latter speaks of people living in their previous victories.
However, don't do both.
I'm not denying that it isn't good to live by Faith, to believe in the things unseen.
But some people push that a little too far.
People begin to guide their lives based on how they were in the past.
Or they guide their lives based on how they want to be.
Upon rehab for my shoulder, I've been rather impatient.
I've regained quite a significant amount of range of motion and am able to load it just a little.
Just when I wanted to push it a little.
A friend reminded me, to live in the NOW.
Don't treat your shoulder like it's all healthy and good in the past.
Don't treat it like it's already recovered in the future.
Treat your shoulder as it is.
Take it in and face up to it. Tell yourself that right now, it is injured and you need to treat it differently.
Treat your life as it is.
No matter how wayward or successful it might be, take it in and deal with it.
It may not be in the best of positions but sometimes you just need to work with what you have.
Doing it any other way may just do more harm than good.
Imagine if I rushed my shoulder rehab, how bad it would've been.
Live your life in the NOW.
Not in the past or in the future.
Because when you do so, you lose sight of the things which need to be done NOW.
These things might just be the make or break for you.
