Fast forward to 2026—Will you be glad that you stubbornly stuck to certain decisions back then? Or will you regret those moments of "Never mind, I don't want to move today"?

Think about it. Every choice you make accumulates and shapes the future version of you. Some decisions may feel difficult at the moment, but you'll see the rewards two years later. But there are also things that should have been done but were delayed, and now you regret it.

The key is, every choice you make now, your 2026 self will be able to feel. Whether it's gratitude or regret depends on whether you've taken real action in these two years. Don't wait until then to realize how many "could have been" opportunities were missed because of "being too lazy to do it."

Really, wasting two years now will make you regret for a lifetime later.

Hmm... that really hits home. I'm now regretting those "forget it" moments from last year. Let's take decisive action and not add stress to the 2026 version of myself. Honestly, sticking with it for two years can really change a lot. It all depends on whether you believe it or not. Being too lazy to do something and being unable to do it are two different things; most people fall into the former. Whenever I feel like being lazy, I think of this quote; it can often save me.

Starting to spread anxiety again, trying to scare me here? Why do I have to set a two-year deadline for myself?

Honestly, it's not too late to start regretting now... --- My 2026 self will probably still be the same, haha --- This is something I say every year, it all depends on who truly perseveres to the end --- I just want to ask, will the people who aren't active now suddenly become diligent in 2026? --- That hit a nerve, but I still plan to keep lying down --- The key is not knowing which decisions are worth sticking to and which ones to give up on --- Why grit your teeth and persevere? First, figure out the direction, then talk --- What’s the point of regret in two years? Anyway, it will all be over
