Quote of the Day

for Sunday, June 22nd, 2025 [Previous Reflections]

“I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific.“
— Lily Tomlin

Reflection on Today's Quote

That quote hits you like a wink and a nudge at the same time. It’s funny, sure, but it carries a serious point: we often chase “somebody” as if it’s a finish line, without deciding who that somebody is. It’s like saying you want to go on a trip but never choosing the destination. You’ll move around a lot, burn some fuel, and end up nowhere particular.

And it’s wild how easy it is to do that. Our dreams sound bold at first — “I want to be successful,” “I want to make a difference,” “I want to matter” — but they float like clouds with no real shape. If we never give them form, they never really lead us. Being specific takes guts. It forces you to say, “This is who I am. This is what I want. This is what I’ll do.” It cuts through the fog.

We can laugh at the quote, but it’s also a friendly reminder. Don’t leave your future to guesses or someone else’s blueprint. Pick a version of yourself you’d recognize and admire, then go for it like you mean it.

Step Up To The Challenge

Take five minutes to write down one thing you want to be very specific about — a skill, a habit, a role, or even a feeling. Picture it as clearly as you can.

Then do one small thing today that moves you toward that version of yourself. No generalities, just one focused action.
