Imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present.

Summary

This quote suggests that while envisioning a better future may provide motivation, people often only use it as a means to avoid dealing with their current reality. Instead of actively working towards creating a desired future, they indulge in daydreaming and fantasizing, failing to take actions necessary to bring about the change they envision. It highlights the tendency to rely on future aspirations as a form of escapism rather than using them as a catalyst for productive action in the present.
