A couple hundred years ago, Bejamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success
- Never leave that to tomorrow he said, which you can to today.
This is the man who discover the electricity, we would think that more of us would listen.
I don't know why we put things of, If I had to guess I say is got a lot to do with fear,
fear of failure, fear of pain, fear of rejection. Sometimes the fear is just making a decision, because what if you're wrong, what if you're making a mistake you can't make undone.
What ever it is that we're afraid of, one thing holds true, that by the time the pain of not do anything get worse then the fear of doing it it can feel like we're caring around a gigantic tumour.
The early bird catches the worm, a stitch in time saves nine.
He who hesitates are lost, we can't pretend that we haven't been told we've all heard the probwerbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day´.
Still sometimes we have to se for our selfs, we have to make our own mistakes, we have to learn our own lessons, we have to swep todays possibility under tomorrows rug until we can't anymore, until we finally understand for our self what Benjamin Franklin ment, that knowing is better then wondering, that waking is better then sleping, then that even the biggest failure, even the worst incredible mistake beats the hell of not trying.
