Today Matters

Every day you wake up is the most important day of your life. Yesterday is gone and there is nothing that can be done about it. The errors that were made have certainly changed your future but it there is nothing that you can do today that will change what happened or didn’t happen yesterday. Tomorrow is yet to be determined. No matter how efficiently you plan or organize, the winds of chance have a way of modifying what we hope or expect tomorrow to be.

It is today that we have the greatest control over and to be more exact it is the very moment of “Now” that is the most malleable. What you do this very instant will put into motion a future that will benefit you or be your demise.

I’ll wait until that sinks in.

You might think that that statement is too drastic and practically unrealistic. But, in fact, it is a truth that needs to be understood. If you were to stop reading this article this instant you wouldn’t understand this secret that I have learned over years of work and life. You won’t be able to “Wow” your friends and family with this insight.

The majority of people understand and grasp the logic of what I wrote but the problem arises when you put this article away or set it down. What will you do with this insight? Will it remain as an interesting thought to be resurrected in a cocktail or boring business meeting or will you take it to heart and do something about it?

I like the movies where the protagonist has been told erroneously that he or she is going to die in a short period of time. They spend the rest of the movie living life to its fullest. They say what they want to say and do what they have always wanted to do. Then as the end of the movie draws near the doctor who had prematurely pronounced his death date apologizes and the protagonist is free again from the impending doom of his death.

The protagonist filled his every waking moment with life altering activities. He didn’t spend more time at work nor did he get another job. He did things with what he had. Just like every one of us can do.

Too many times we waste precious moments waiting for that special condition, whether it be more money, an opportunity, or more favorable conditions…it doesn’t matter. It is an illusion. It keeps us sitting down in front of the TV, behind a desk, letting people walk on us until our days dim and we are finally put to bed. We let death creep up on us.

Make today matter. Chance your actions and change your future.
