Procrastination is the thief of time. Life is what happens to you while you're
busy making other
plans. In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is
the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is
nothing. Put off for one day and ten days will pass by. You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you've
collected a lot of empty yesterdays.
Many of us spend half of our time wishing for things we
could have, if we didn't spend half of our time wishing. One does evil enough when one does nothing good. The chief cause of failure and unhappiness is trading
what we want most for what we want at the moment. He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for
anything else. Whenever I get the energy to exercise, I sit down until
it passes.
After all is said and done, there is usually more said
than done. Never put off to tomorrow what you can do
today. All things come to those who wait, but when they come
they're out of date.
