Default The End Game Begins Now

In this article, I talk about the necessity of starting to act as you wish to be in the future. Your goals will never be reached unless you start becoming the person you want to be by acting like the person you wish to be.

"Be as you wish to seem." - Socrates

Let me know what you guys think.

Excellent. This deepens my understanding of finding a "role model".

Ouch. Spelling errors all over that one. No more writing late at night.

I like it! Especially the line:

...what you are and what you will be in the future is the product of what you’re doing right at this moment.

So true! But how many people actually think of their lives in that way? If you want to end up in someplace else tomorrow, you gotta start moving in that direction today.

May I suggest using that article as a platform to write other articles that explore some of the concepts you discussed? Like... maybe an article on the way to create the ideal "you", or a way to discover that person if they're not found yet.

Thanks Andrew,
Read your article and found it very interesting.
Here's a very applicable quote from Wayne Dyer:
"Treat yourself as if you already be what you want to become."

Not a bad idea. I may consider doing exactly that.
