I found this article very inspiring, that speaks about the
value of time, and motivates us to utilize every moment, for the time that has
gone will never come back, so is it with opportunities that we get in everyday
life situations, once we miss the opportunity, it is gone and is rolled into
eternity, very often we forget the clock is ticking, and each of us have
something beautiful to accomplish here on earth, for our lives have a
purpose. Reading this empowered me to
relook and remind myself as to what am I actually doing with my time. Read on:
Today is yesterday’s Tomorrow by Jim
Rohn
The
problem with waiting until tomorrow is that when it finally arrives, it is
called today. Today is yesterday's tomorrow. The question is what did we do with
its opportunity? All too often we will waste tomorrow as we wasted yesterday,
and as we are wasting today. All that could have been accomplished can easily
elude us, despite our intentions, until we inevitably discover that the things
that might have been have slipped from our embrace a single, unused day at a
time.
Each of us must pause frequently to
remind ourselves that the clock is ticking. The same clock that began to tick
from the moment we drew our first breath will also someday cease.Time
is the great equalizer of all mankind. It has taken away the best and the worst
of us without regard for either. Time offers opportunity but demands a sense of
urgency.
When
the game of life is finally over, there is no second chance to correct our
errors. The clock that is ticking away the moments of our lives does not care
about winners and losers. It does not care about who succeeds or who fails. It
does not care about excuses, fairness or equality. The only essential issue is
how we played the game.
Regardless
of a person's current age, there is a sense of urgency that should drive them
into action now - this very moment. We should be constantly aware of the value
of each and every moment of our lives - moments that seem so insignificant that
their loss often goes unnoticed.
We
still have all the time we need. We still have lots of chances - lots of
opportunities - lots of years to show what we can do. For most of us, there
will be a tomorrow, a next week, a next month, and a next year. But unless we
develop a sense of urgency, those brief windows of time will be sadly wasted,
as were the weeks and months and years before them.
Have a nice Day !
