Do you know if you have tomorrow?

ByJowi

Hey Reader,

Whenever we make a plan, we think of tomorrow.
Do you actually know if you have a tomorrow?

I have done a lot of thinking on that the last few years.

Almost three years ago I lost my mom to cancer.
She didn’t get to 55 years of age.

We all hear the numbers.
The average lifespan is 80 years.
But that’s the world’s average.

My mom also thought it would be fine.
That she had time.
Until she didn’t.

I was there with her.
In those days when she became ready to leave here to go to a much better place.

It’s still a bit of a puzzle to me.
I believe that God is preparing people right in time to be ready.

We all fall into the trap of thinking that we have a someday.

It is a comforting idea that we have much of life left.

It’s prideful to expect that you will have another day.

You can’t plan with certainty for tomorrow.

You need to be more urgent using today.​
Since tomorrow is not under your control.

I’m not saying to live today like your last or to go out and only have fun.

I’m saying: take ownership over your time.

Don’t waste the time you have today.

Every day you waste is one day you will never get back.

If you want to build a better future for your family, take action today.​
Don’t wait for a better day.

Make sure you know what’s important today.

Don’t expect that you will do it someday.

When you know the ability to start today,
​realize that you don’t have time for everything, but everything worthwhile is worth making time for.

​

Use your Today! Take Action!

    Hey Reader, In business, we are often tempted to jump on big trends. We often feel like we’re missing out if we don’t. Especially at the beginning, it’s hard. The question is: how do you get started? You should go where the fish are. Don’t blindly follow the advice of the fishermen. The fish is the spot, not the fishermen. The rest will follow long after. A friend and I went fishing together. When we arrived at the lake, it was often that way that others were leaving. So you just lost. Ash…
