Here's how to make your future self happy
Your immediate desires are killing your chances

What you want right this second and what you actually want long term are polar opposites and the thing that’ll define your life is which one you choose to act on.
Is it compelling to be lazy and to settle for less?
Sure.
But I simply refuse because a momentary urge doesn’t define who I am and I choose to act like the person I want to be, not the person it would be easy to default to.
You see, successful people act in the moment, in a way that will be gratifying to look back on when the moment passes and when your life is built on that foundation, you’re on the right path.
