It's very easy to justify doing things that we don't want to do if we believe the end goals are necessary. The problem I find is that when we justify doing something that we spend so much of our life occupied with, such as a career, focused on the money or benefits and forget to do what we actually want to do, we in turn become a slave to the illusion of control. Sure having money and nice benefits can provide a sense of comfort, but at what cost? Is it really worth it to spend our lives working a job we don't like or compromising our own integrity and values in the pursuit of comfort? That's living for tomorrow while forgetting about the day that we have, and in the end tomorrow never comes.

This resonates with me, especially the part where we work too much to secure tomorrow at the expense of today.

In my country, there's quite a craze about airdrops. There was a time I was part of that too, with the attendant spamming of twitter and telegram. One day, I just stopped myself short and asked what I was doing all of it. I realised I had no genuine reason. I just didn't want to miss out. Needless to say, that was the last day I applied for any airdrop.

Sometimes, we allow the fear of tomorrow to control us so much we miss the joy of today.

Thanks for your post
