You have Today in your hands which is much better than someday.

You have Today in your hands which is much better than someday.

Very often I hear people they will accomplish something someday.

Someday... I will.... and the list can run on endlessly. I know that we cannot do everything we want today. But we can dream, make a make a plan and also make an attempt — today. Postponing, procrastinating, waiting only hinders our moving forwd to meet opportunities. Delaying action can hurts us too. Reseach confirms that procrastination keeps more people from living their dreams than any other cause. Taking action today is in our hands. It is a choice we have to make. Sure there will be several obstacles that we may encounter. It will apply breaks in our progress, or make our dream pursuit even more difficult. But, not taking action and procrastinating are a sure receipe for disaster.

What really keeps us from taking action at this point of time today?
We have an inherent fear failure.
We get discourage when we think of the effort.
We wait for favorable conditions.
We are averse to taking risks
We stay within our comfort zones
We get influced by someon's experience.

Reasons can go on endlessly like this. Sit down to analyze what keeps you from away from taking action today?

Go with the feeling that today is better than someday.

Earn Time and Enjoy Work Life Balance

Earn Time and Enjoy Work Life Balance

Whoever I talk to, I hear them say, "I just don’t have the time right now. I’m too busy." It doesn't sound strange isn't it, because you too would be in the same boat. People would also advise you to look at your time management etc., which is pretty standard too. What if I tell you that there is a serious possibility of gaining a few extra hours everyday.
It could mean getting up a little early and going to bed a little late.
May be give up a little bit of television watching time. Enjoy your meal or a breakfast, however, just reduce the time you spend on it. Take up a job which is close to your workplace, you can save a lot of journey time. I would think you can easily squeeze in about three hours all told by tinkering a little bit on the aspects I've enumerated. In a week you get 21 hours, which is nearly an extra day, in a month you get 90 hours = 3.5 days more, and in a year 1095 hours = a whopping 45.6 days. That's a lot more than what you earn per year as a holiday being engaged with a company for eight hours minimum a day.
It's in your hands to make this happen. When you have then see where you can invest this extra time into - it could be for reading, for being with your family, it could be for exercising in the gym or going for a jog or a walk or to play a game of squash, or tennis or badminton etc.
And what more you will have conserved more energy too, which will all add up to enjoying good health too. 
People will advise you to save money, a good thing indeed.
Equate the time that is lost into money and you will realize how much you've gained.
I bet none of us can buy time with whatever money we have.
