Live For Today !!

"Better three hours too soon, than one minute too late." — William Shakespeare

Good Morning,

Today we are going to talk about procrastination. Most people do not have a sense of urgency to do anything until it's too late. People wait until a doctor tells them that there health is in danger before they quit smoking, exercising or dieting. People start doing better at work when they realize they are about to lose there job. People start to try and make the relationships better when they fear they are about to lose it. Why do we wait to do things when it's to late?

You must not live your life in the past. You can learn from the past, but, don't stay there. You must live your life in the present to the best of your ability. What you do in the present, lays the foundation for the future. Your present becomes your past and your future becomes your present. Does that make sense? In other words, you only live in the present. You can't live your life in the future, you can't live your life in the past. You only have the time here and now.

You must live today! Don't wait until it's to late to set goals and start working on them. Time goes so quickly, that before you know it, it will be too late. Don't fall in this trap. Set your goals, work on accomplishing them and set more goals. Always strive to do your best everyday at whatever it is you do. Give it your all. Stand out from the crowd. Take chances, conquer your fears, live positive, live with passion, do not take the important things in your life for granted. Life is short, it really is. The average age is about 75 years. That's not very long. Do you want to just live your life and go with the flow? Think about it it, 75 years !!

People get so wrapped up in what other people think and do. Break out of the mold, be different, be adventurous, be outrageous, be daring, do as much as you can everyday! What's the worst that can happen? When your time is up, do you think anything at that point is going to matter? You are one person among millions and millions of people. The earth is like a speck of dust among the solar system. Does that put your life in perspective? You need to enjoy every second, every hour, every day of your life! Don't wait to do something tomorrow, because it may never come.

Here is something I learned from my Martial arts training. You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success! The clock is running. Make the most of today.

To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who has failed a grade.

To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who has given birth to a pre-mature baby.

To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.

To realize the value of ONE DAY, ask a daily wage laborer who has kids to feed.

To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.

To realize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who has missed the train.

To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who has avoided an accident.

To realize the value of ONE MILLI-SECOND, ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics.

Treasure every moment that you have!

And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time. .... and remember that time waits for no one.

Yesterday is history
Tomorrow a mystery
Today is a gift
That's why it's called the present!

Until next time, always be aware of your decisions that shape your destiny!
