Life is Short, so Stop Waiting and Start Doing

You would make bigger requests. Set bigger goals. And aim higher. If you realized how short this life truly is. 

You would get up before the sun rises, and look at the stars at night. You would dance in the rain, and stop to smell the flowers.

You would not spend valuable time in other people’s minds. You would stop worrying about what other people are thinking or doing.

You would stay in your own lane and focus on your own journey.

You would do the thing you have always dreamed of doing. And you wouldn’t feel guilty about it, either. If you realized how short this life truly is. 

You would go outside and play with your kids when you are tired and don’t want to. You would hug your wife more, and show her how much you appreciate her. You would call your parents more often, and make spending time with your family a priority. 

You would take care of your body. You would put down the junk and fuel your body with healthy and nutritious foods. You would get up and move more, stretch more, lift heavy things more. If you realized how short this life truly is. 

You would run the race.

You would start the business.

You would take the trip.

You would pick up the phone and call the friend when the thought comes to mind, instead of telling yourself you will do it later and then never making the call. If you realized how short this life truly is. 

You would serve and lead. In your home, your business, and your community.

You would be a light in the dark

What would you do today that you have been putting off until tomorrow?
