Forward Thinking

A pro tip I learned from years as a leader: Always think forward, never backwards.  I used to leave myself voice mail messages of thoughts and ideas until one day I realized that the voice I would listen to is not me. That was past me. A me that no longer exists. By the time I listened to "my" messages they were old, stale, and frankly, garbage. I was not forward thinking, I was holding onto the past.  So what do I do now? I act. I activate.  I am focused on the future. But the future is unattainable as it is constantly ahead of us. Even as I type this message my present self is becoming my past self. I no longer believe the first 70 words of this post.  My motto, and it should be yours too: Never always trust who you are in the moment unless that moment is the future; acting in the present is too late, and the past is now behind you. Always constantly be moving forward ahead of your present self refusing to move backwards.  See you on the field.

I was chasing a certain definition of success, a definition I had dreamt up in my own head. I was successful, but still deeply unhappy. I could not understand why. Then it struck me. You are not your career. Your career is you. Respond to those emails instead of a lunch break? Yes. 80 hour workweeks? Yes. Skipping time with the kids to close a deal? Yes. Here I was trying to budget my time to advance my career when all I had to do was allow my career to budget my time.  I made the change; I am no longer my career. So stop defining yourself by what you do. Allow your career to define you.
