Life Is Passing

"Youth is wasted on the young".

Time is an interesting concept. It seems that we fail to appreciate it until it is running out. Today, I want to stimulate you to think about how fragile this commodity is.

Time can either be invested or wasted. We are all given a certain amount of it. Of course, that varies for each person. The fact that we never know when it is going to run out opens up the opportunity to waste it. A healthy idea is to live each moment to the fullest since you never know if it will be your last.

"Get busy living or get busy dying" -Timothy Robbin's character in the Shawshank Redemption

Life is passing one day at a time. Each day brings us closer to the end. What are you doing to put your stamp on life? People tend to put off their dreams believing there is always time. There is not. In addition, many settle for less than they fully desire in hopes that someday it will all change. Sadly, these people get to the end of their lives only to realize they did not live. They got busy dying instead of living.

Time is the only thing that everyone is equal in. Each person walking the planet is given 24 hours in a day. No more. No less. What separates people is how each chooses to spent that time. Is it invested or is it wasted? Do you prefer to lounge in front of the television every night? Or do you utilize that time reading materials that get you closer to your dreams? It is a choice that determines the quality of the time passing.

Here is a warning: your life is passing with every moment. It is time to get busy if you want to avoid looking back over your life with regret. Dust those dreams of your youth off and begin to create a mental image of a better life for yourself. Start to take the action that will make a difference. Invest the most precious asset, this moment, wisely.
