INSIGHTS for SUCCESS
“You may delay but time will not, and lost time is never found again.” (Benjamin Franklin)
“Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone” (Pablo Picasso)
“Now is the time to get serious about living your ideals. How long can you afford to put off who you really want to be? Your nobler self cannot wait any longer. Put your principles into practice – now. Stop the excuses and the procrastination. This is your life! You aren’t a child anymore. The sooner you set yourself to your spiritual program, the happier you will be. The longer you wait, the more you’ll be vulnerable to mediocrity and feel filled with shame and regret, because you know you are capable of better. From this instant on, vow to stop disappointing yourself. Separate yourself from the mob. Decide to be extraordinary and do what you need to do – now.”
(Epictetus)

Don’t take it for granted that you can confidently assume you will be able to do at a later time what you really wanted to do now. Life is unpredictable, and circumstances may change, making it difficult to achieve those postponed aspirations. There is a very real risk that by having postponed what you truly wanted to do, you will end up by not having been able to do it in the future, and by having, for most of your life, not fulfilled what you truly had valued and wanted to do.
