What If Tomorrow Wasn’t Promised?

It’s six o’clock in the morning. I just told you that today is your last day on Earth. What would you do differently? Would you lay in the bed contemplating your existence? Wondering where you went wrong and about all the time you wasted.

Or would you get up out of the bed and be accountable for your 86,400 seconds for this single day? See, we all seem to think that tomorrow is promised to us. This should not be a shock to you, but it’s not. Nothing in this life is permanent. Not a relationship, a job, etc. Nothing lasts forever and what you are doing now is temporary and in the moment.

So if today was your last day, you should be doing your best to accomplish everything you have been procrastinating about. But it shouldn’t take this ominous event to get you to take some action should it?

No, this is the very reason for the saying, Carpe Diem, which mean Seize the Day. And that is how you should be every damn day. You should ready every day to make the most of each second. To not waste it frivolously.

So get up and get started. Yes, right now. Don’t waste this day. Stop reading this. Start doing what you need to do to conquer your dreams.

It’s time to get to work.
