Hāʻawi pinepine mākou iā mākou iho: ʻai i kahi mea ʻono, akā pōʻino, hoʻopanee i kahi mea koʻikoʻi ma hope, hiamoe i 15 mau minuke, a laila holo i ka hana. Hāʻawi ka mea kākau ʻo David Kane i kahi ala akamai e kōkua iā ʻoe e hoʻokele maikaʻi iā ʻoe iho a me kou ola.
Aia i mua oʻu kahi maiʻa nani. ʻAʻohe stains, melemele hemolele. ʻO ka maiʻa maikaʻi loa a ʻike wau ʻaʻole ia e hōʻino iaʻu ke ʻai au.
Makemake au e ʻai ia mea, no laila, ʻaʻole wau i manaʻo e hiki iaʻu ke hoʻoneʻe iā ia i ka ʻehā ma ka ʻai ʻana iā ia i loko o hoʻokahi hola a i ʻole 4 mau hola a e hāʻawi mai iaʻu i ka leʻaleʻa like a hāʻawi iaʻu i ka nui like o ka potassium. Poina iaʻu inā e ʻai au iā ia i kēia manawa, ʻaʻole loaʻa iā David Future kekahi mea. No laila, hoʻomāʻewaʻewa wau iā David-ma ʻaneʻi-a-i kēia manawa ma ka lilo o Future David.
Ma muli o nā kūlana, hiki paha iā David ke hauʻoli i ka maiʻa ma mua o David maanei a i kēia manawa. Inā ʻaʻole i oʻo ka maiʻa, a i ka lā ʻapōpō ua hiki i ke kūlana kūpono.
Akā naʻe ua koho ʻo David-ma ʻaneʻi-a-i kēia manawa i kāna makemake a ua ʻili i ka ʻili. I koʻu ulu ʻana, ʻike wau ʻo David-anei-a-i kēia manawa e lilo a ʻoi aku ka lokomaikaʻi i kāna hoa hana mai ka wā e hiki mai ana. Manaʻo wau i kekahi lā hiki iā ia ke mālama i nā Davids ʻē aʻe e like me kāna hana ʻana iā ia iho.
ʻOiai ʻo nā pono o David-ma ʻaneʻi-a-i kēia manawa ka mea nui. Manaʻo nui ʻia kēia ke hoʻolilo ʻole wau i kahi kālā nui no kekahi mau mea lapuwale, a pono ʻo David-of-the-future e hoʻopaʻa i kona kāʻei no ka mea hiki ʻole iā ia ke uku.
He mea nui e aʻo e mālama i kou wā e hiki mai ana me ke aloha like a mākou e mālama ai i ko mākou iho i kēia manawa.
Lawe pinepine au iā David-mai-ka-hiki e hoʻomāʻona iā David-maʻaneʻi-a-i kēia manawa. Akā, hoʻomaka wau e hoʻomaopopo e lilo ʻo David-of-the-future i kekahi manawa iā David-anei-a-i kēia manawa. ʻOiai, ʻo wau nō ka David o ka wā e hiki mai ana, ka mea a nā Davids o ka wā kahiko i kaumaha pinepine ai no ko lākou pono ponoʻī.
No ka laʻana, i kēia manawa hiki iā David ke ʻoi aku ka waiwai a me ka wīwī inā ʻaʻole i hoʻolilo ʻo Davids-of-the-past i ke kālā nui ma ka booze a me nā mea ʻono. He mea nui e aʻo e mālama i kou wā e hiki mai ana me ke aloha like a mākou e mālama ai i ko mākou iho i kēia manawa.
E hoʻomanaʻo i ka hoʻokolohua marshmallow i hana ʻia i ka hopena o 60s ma Stanford? Noho ka poʻe noiʻi i nā keiki ʻelima mau makahiki i mua o kahi marshmallow a hāʻawi iā lākou i kahi koho: ʻai koke ia a kali paha i 15 mau minuke a loaʻa ʻelua marshmallows. Ma hope o kēlā, haʻalele lākou i nā keiki me ka hoʻowalewale.
I kēia manawa hiki iā David ke ʻoi aku ka waiwai a me ka wīwī inā ʻaʻole i hoʻolilo nā Davids-mai-ka-kahiko i ke kālā nui ma ka wai inu a me nā mea ʻono.
ʻO ka hapakolu wale nō o lākou i hiki ke hala i 15 mau minuke a loaʻa kahi marshmallow lua. I ka nānā ʻana o nā psychologists i ka hopena o kēia mau keiki ma hope o 15 mau makahiki, ua ʻike ʻia ua loaʻa iā lākou nā hopena kula kiʻekiʻe a lanakila.
Pehea e aʻo ai e mālama i ka wā e hiki mai ana? ʻElua aʻu manaʻo:
E ʻae i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo kāu manawa i kēia mua aku. I kēia lā ke ʻohi nei ʻoe i nā hua o nā hana i hala. Inā makemake ʻoe e kūleʻa i ke ola, e noʻonoʻo i kāu iho-a-i kēia manawa e waiho ana i ka ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula no kāu Future Self. ʻO ka poʻe hoʻopaʻi kiʻekiʻe, ʻo ia ka poʻe hiki ke kaena i nā pōmaikaʻi i hoʻoili ʻia mai ko lākou mālama a naʻauao mai ka wā i hala.
- Hoʻopaʻa i nā manawa ke hoʻokuʻu ʻoe i kāu Future Self. ʻO ka mea maʻamau ke hele ʻoe i ke kūʻai ʻana, e nānā i ke TV, e hoʻoheheʻe i nā ʻano hāmeʻa like ʻole, a i ʻole ke kaomi ʻana i ke pihi hoʻōki. ʻO kekahi puʻupuʻu french fries a i ʻole donuts he mea ʻawaʻawa āu e hoʻouna ai i loko o kahi pūʻolo i ka wā e hiki mai ana.
E manaʻoʻiʻo mai iaʻu: ʻo kou wā e hiki mai ana ʻo ʻoe, ʻaʻole kekahi kiʻi abstract. A e uku ʻo ia i kāna mau bila a i ʻole e hauʻoli i ke ola, e hilinaʻi ana i ka mea aʻu e hana ai.
