So I came across this catch-phrase at the time of the 2007 Cricket World Cup when I read these words by the then Team India Cricket Coach, John Wright .. "Now or Never"!
Have found this to be absolutely correct since then ; You may have come across various versions of this but the message is always essentially the same.. The time is always Now.
Have you ever really thought that all you can do about the Past is look at it fondly or regret it ; And all you can actually do about the Future is imagine or wonder?
So, the only place where we can actually do anything that can make a difference is the Present right?
But easier said than done right?
I can correlate this with the very example of my starting this blog and share with you what I learnt..
All the while I kept doubting myself,
It was just time lost;
While I couldn't see it yesterday,
Today I see that I paid a high cost..
I may not know,
What tomorrow holds for me;
But I act today..
Just so I have no regrets and can be free... 😊
Another thing I have learnt from experience.. Neither does there seem to be any logical reason for regretting or being lost in the Past that has already happened and can't be changed ; Nor is there any point in worrying about an uncertain future (that you only are creating with your imagination always!).
So it seems best to live in the moment always na? 😊
P.S. Like about everything, this also reminds of a song! 😉

ReplyDeleteVery rightly put across. Though everyone knows and agrees, however still does not put into practice because it is much easy to procrastinate.
Regretting about the past and having pity on yourself is not going to take us anywhere. Gratitude and honest effort today gets us to what we deserve.
Precisely!
