It’s a terrible thing to wait
“It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now, and you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any” –Hugh Laurie
This one some of you may recognize, I saw it in a few different places on facebook but it definitely caught my eye. I have talked about this before but it is something I truly believe is important to keep in mind as well as something I have struggled with. There is no perfect time. Life will always throw you a curveball when you least expect it, the question is whether you are going to hit it out of the park, or strike out swinging.
There is no perfect time to start eating healthy, there is no perfect time to chase a dream, there is not perfect time to step up. There can be no “well ill start eating healthy at the end of the weekend” or no “well I’ll get a membership to that gym next week”. Anything worth doing in life is often hard. It means that it will always come with its own set of challenges that will present themselves no matter how perfect the timing is.
If you are looking to get in shape, to lose the weight, to be successful, the time to begin working on that is not next week. Its now, today, 5 minutes ago, as soon as you back out of this email. If you were thinking donuts and pancakes for breakfast change that right now, don’t have it because you were thinking about it and say “well ill cook a healthy breakfast tomorrow”. Do it NOW!!!!
When it comes down to it, don’t wait, there will never be a perfect time. Think about it, where do most of those dreams end up. Those ideas, those “when I get to a point where I’m making more money I’m going to __________” those things people wanted to try but never did. The changes they wanted to make but never did because they were waiting for the perfect time. All those people, all those ideas, all those dreams, and where did a majority of them end up? Most likely they ended up with them…..6 feet under.
So don’t delay, don’t wait, you have a dream you have an idea, you have a lifestyle you want to live, then live it. Don’t wait until tomorrow or else you may get to a point where you waited to long and tomorrow never comes. All of you deserve to be as happy and as fulfilled as humanly possible. It may sound morbid, it may sound tough, but I care about you all and I don’t want any of you to have any regrets.
