You shouldn't spend all of your days daydreaming about the future while hating your present. You need to change your current situation into one that you're proud of. There's no reason to mope around, hating everything about your life. Here are a few things that you should stop waiting for and just do already if you want to be happier:
Don't wait until you have more experience to apply for your dream job. Maybe you won't get it now, but even if you get rejected, you can try again when you get that experience you've been waiting for. It's worth a shot. It doesn't hurt to fill out an application and spend a day at an interview.
Okay, you don't actually have to ask him out if you're uncomfortable doing so. But if you've been sitting around all day, waiting for him to text you first, just shoot him a text. It's not going to make you look desperate, unless you say something wildly inappropriate. Be brave and just start the conversation. He might be sitting there waiting for you to do the same.
If you want to be a writer, you can't wait for inspiration to strike. You need to just write, whether you want to or not. If you have an assignment to finish at an office job, get it done now instead of waiting until you're struck with more energy. You can't keep putting it off.
Have you ever planned to start exercising or to start a diet, but told yourself that you'd do it the next day? Well, some people will tell themselves that they'll be productive "tomorrow" every single day, which means that it never ends up happening. Today is the day to start, so no more putting it off.
If you're unhappy with your man and can't stand the thought of spending another second with him, get the break up over with. The same goes for any friends in your life or for your job. If you've been waiting for the right time to quit, start applying to new places so you can get out of there ASAP.
Is there a secret that's been weighing on you that you know you'll have to admit sooner or later? If it's killing you to keep quiet, go on and tell the truth. If you don't, your lies might end up snowballing and really hurting someone. So if you've been waiting for the right time to tell someone the truth, do it now. You'll never find the "right time," so you just have to get it over with as soon as you can. You'll feel better once it's all over with.
Your happiness doesn't only exist in your future. It should exist right here and right now. Stop putting off fun activities so that you can finish your paperwork. Everyone needs to relax once in a while, so if you're super stressed, clear your schedule so that you can have a fun day off.
You don't have to wait years to accomplish what you could do today. All you have to do is get up and get productive--right now. Are you ready to do any of these things?
