Our lives are a picture of what we ought to do, what we need to do, what we are planning to do and what we want to do.

About This Quote

We all have a plan for our lives. We have a vision of what we want our lives to look like, and we have a list of things that we need to accomplish before we die. We may even have a set of principles that we want to follow in order to accomplish those goals. The trouble is that the things that we say we want to do rarely match up with what we actually do.

It’s as if the pictures of our future selves are locked away in some safe place, awaiting our return, but they’re too far away for us to reach now. And so the story goes on as it has been for thousands of years now—we try, try again, and try again again—and every time we fall back into the same old mistakes.
