Joy is yours if you will only reach out and grasp it today!
A lot of us dwell on the past and think about what ifs. Regretting the decisions that we made, which, if thought about in retrospect, perhaps were made with good intentions based on circumstances at the time.
Another set of us keep waiting on the perfect future, that will present us with the perfect opportunity to do what our imperfect hearts tell us to do today. Why do we expect perfection in our situation when we are far from perfect?
We can’t seem to get beyond ourselves and realize that the present gives us the best options to make our lives what it needs to be and what we need it to be. Waiting on tomorrow’s perfect opportunity will never come. Dwelling on the past will only cause stagnation and we will never be able to appreciate opportunities that are knocking on our door right now.
We need to stop waiting, stop procrastinating and act now while we are able to. The past is past and none of us has a crystal ball to show us what our future will be. If there is something you need to get done – do it now. If there is something from the past preventing you from moving forward get rid of it and break free.
Become you now!
“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present.”
― Bil Keane
“Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.”
“It’s being here now that’s important. There’s no past and there’s no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can’t relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don’t know if there is one.”
