Sometimes when I stay up late doing something creative I end up getting this very comforting feeling about the future. A sort of certainty that everything will work out in the end and that luck happy coincidences will always be on my side. If I had this sort of confidence throughout the day, I would live a much more pleasant and relaxed life. Since it makes me forget about all the hurdles I am grappling with in life, it makes excited about the future once again (like I was in my early teens before all the new responsibilities started weighing on me), and makes me want to go out there and live life to the fullest.
Does anyone else experience this feeling as well? It’s always gone by the morning but if I could internalize it it could be life changing. Do you have any idea how?
Oh that’s true for me as well, evening me is overly optimistic. I still wish that day me had some of that optimism though because he’s too pessimistic from being let down by fate. Maybe I leave too many things to chance but with things like bumping into the right people, success is largely outside of your control
That depends on how you define success, though.
