One day a stranger walked by. “Spare some change?” mumbled the beggar, “I have nothing to give you,” said the stranger. Then he asked: “What’s that you’re sitting on?” “Nothing, ” replied the beggar. “Just an old box. I’ve been sitting on it for as long as I can remember. “Ever look inside?,” asked the stranger. “No,” said the beggar. “What’s the point, there’s nothing in there.” “Have a look inside,” insisted the stranger. The beggar, reluctantly, managed to pry open the lid. With astonishment, disbelief, and elation, he saw that the box was filled with gold.
We all have ideas of what we’d like to do with our lives, but not all of us reach that destination. Some believe that their time has come and gone. Many of us are living unfulfilled lives. What can you do to break free? The answer is simple, for some …not easy. Live in the NOW. It doesn’t matter how young or old you are, I can assure you that you have this moment.. yes, right now you can begin moving toward your goal.
There is only one right time anything beyond that is an illusion, an excuse: NOW. Today is the result of all that you accomplished yesterday.. and yesterday is no more. Tomorrow is but a dream of all that you create today. Now. Right this instant. That’s the only time you know you have for sure.
You’re never too old to start doing what you want to do, and only you can blame yourself for losing precious time while you wait to begin.
