Now is the time to act, even if you don’t know what you’re doing. If you have a dream, a plan, or even just a stupid idea , get it in process today.
“So what do we do? Anything. Something. So long as we just don’t sit there. If we screw it up, start over. Try something else. If we wait until we’ve satisfied all the uncertainties, it may be too late.”–Lee Iacocca
It has taken me to the half-way point of my life to realize that this is my life. There are already too many regrets for half-baked ideas that got stale and were thrown out, for grand ideas that were put off because of fear and doubt.
Plan and save for the future? Yes, that’s a very smart thing to do. Save our dreams and ideas for the future? No, that’s a terrible idea. The Deferred Life Plan is not what you’re looking for.
The only constant in life is change. By the time you are old enough to retire, you may not have the health to enjoy it or you may have a reversal of fortune. Don’t spend money you don’t have, but don’t put off living until your sixties either. Find joy in the journey.
Find that dream that nags at you even when you try to ignore it, and do just one thing to bring it about. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Just take that first step, but do it today.
