- I only do this because I’m having fun. The day I stop having fun, I’ll just walk away.
- I’m not good at future planning. I don’t plan at all. I don’t know what I’m doing tomorrow. I don’t have a day planner and I don’t have a diary. I completely live in the now, not in the past, not in the future.
