So many of us stop believing that the choices that we make on a daily basis will have any impact on us whatsoever. Humans in general tend to be shortsighted, and do not have good skills when it comes to planning. However, if you are a forward-thinking person who wants to truly make a difference in the world, or at least achieve specific goals in life, then you are going to have to begin to view the future as something that you can actively mold to suit your needs.
If your goals are very lofty, then you are going to quickly realize that you need to be completely and 100% at your best if you are going to achieve those goals. Everybody wants to become the best version of themselves possible, and if you are not taking care of your most fundamental needs, then you are going to be struggling for most of your life with issues that do not need to be issues.
