Decide what is important to you and do it, whatever the sacrifice!
Our good friend Bill Nicholson, who has helped lead our company into a period of extraordinary growth, delivering poignant story about his father.
When Bill was young, he and his father went fishing. They both lead a busy life. They do not have much time to hang out together. There are many things to do, so many plans.
But suddenly on a boat before, Bill's father clutched her chest, signaling the beginning of a fatal heart attack. The last words of his father, who heard him was, "Not now. Do it now! "
Mark Twain once said, "Do not do today what you can postpone until tomorrow morning." That's not true!
We may have set long-term goals are important. But then every day there was something important, something urgent, something serious, emerging deter us.
So, if you have something really important to you, find a way to get started today!
We did not know what dad thinks Bill when he would die. We only know what he said, "Not now! Do it now! "
Every time I hear the story, again I decided to use the time left to do what is really important to me.
Start now ... today!
