"Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone"- Pablo Picasso
I read this quote the other day in a group of 50 success quotes. Ever since I read it, I could not get it out of my mind. Here are some of my thoughts about it.
I believe that we tend to spend most of or lives in two time modes: yesterday-now and now-tomorrow. The only thing that those two modes have in common is the now. Unfortunately, we tend to forget this.
Our lives are either spent reliving the past or planning for the future. But the magic only occurs in the now. This why it is a'present'.
As the quote instructs we should not waste our time putting off our dreams till tomorrow because it might never come. If it is that important to you then continue working on it today until you are spent. For if you are to die tonight, you would have done all you could towards completing it.
Today's question is:
"What dream are you willing to left undone forever?"
