Time is short - do what you have to do 2.18.2015

Very often, we tend to procrastinate because we do not want to finish the things we have to do right now. In our minds, we have already deeply ingrained the thought that "we have a tomorrow" in our brains without even noticing. We think that tomorrow is going to exist, that's why we procrastinate.

However, the future is always an unknown to us.  One day, you will realize how little time you actually have. We cannot think that we will have forever because time is only getting shorter. Don't think that you can do it "tomorrow" because tomorrow may not even exist. If you are alive, you know you have this moment, you have the present. Hold tight onto the moment because this moment is not going to happen again, never in history. Hold tight onto the present because this is the only moment that you are promised with.

Now, I just want to remind you to take the moment and do what you want to do - start your company, study hard, read your bible... Anything you HAVE to do, anything you WANT to do, do it now. No one knows what tomorrow holds and no one knows how many tomorrows they have. You have this moment so live it now!

There are people who wish they could do something tomorrow, there are people who thought they could repair their relationships tomorrow, there are people who thought they could forgive/appologize tomorrow, just to find out that it is too late.

We wait, we procrastinate just to wait for a better timing just to find out nothing worked because we have waited too long for the right moment. There is no perfect moment but what you can do is to start now.


You may have a tomorrow but to be honest, you never know. What I know is, I have this moment now and I will use it now. Time is short, act fast, act now.

    1. Thank you so much! No problem :)

      Me too! I guess God has different plans for different situations. Sometimes He needs us to wait, but sometimes we just have only got this moment, right? :)
