You are already the main character

Wherever you happen to be right now, whoever you feel like you are right now, this is your story. It’s unfolding all the time while you go about your daily activities. You don’t have to dance wildly in a crowd or have an epic experience or show anyone you’re #giving some kind of #energy or anything else. You are here today and that’s that.

You already have a life as the main character in your own story. It does not belong to anyone else. To play out the rest of the story, you have a set of resources. Those include the money you have today and the money you will make and spend in the future.

But there’s more. Your resources also include your smarts, talents, friends, family, time, memories, and more. With all of these, your story is already rich. And you are at the beginning of it.

Imagine the next scene, whatever it is you’re doing to do next. The whole cast follows, the whole set adapts to you. Take 1… Action!
