"Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."
This a line from my song for Connor - "Beautiful Boy" by John Lennon...and, funnily enough, it was quoted in a book that I was reading today.
To me...these words are perhaps some of the most true words ever written.
Here's why...
Too many people are either looking back or planning forward that they forget that the most important place to focus on is NOW!
Your life is evolving around you...even as you read this. The world is moving forward...millions of people are going from A to B...and millions are going back again.
Your clock is ticking...yet you are paralysing your own momentum because of what you are focusing on!
Life is like swimming in a river.
No matter how hard you try...you will never be able to swim forever against the current.
Yet...as soon as you turn to swim with it...you are suddenly propelled faster than you ever have before.
And...that is EXACTLY what is happening to you!
You are fighting against the current if you are too busy thinking, planning, debating, wondering, complaining, worrying...and not ACTING!
So...stop what you are doing...and start doing something else right now!
