Inspired by Ali Abdaal – How to make every minute count
I knew this book “Someday is Today” by Matthew Dicks from Ali Abdaal’s youtube video and LifeNotes.
All of us have dreams. Occationally we like to say that “I will do it someday”. However, if you do not plan to do it, the so-called someday will never come. Therefore, someday is today.
Here is an excerpt from the book “Someday is Today”:
Someday might be my least favorite word in the English language. It is the word that prevents so many from trying so much. It’s the word that results in lament and regret. Someday causes people to live small lives filled with wishes and dreams and delay and inaction.
Someday is the word that allows people to wait unitil it is too late.
Some day is why two of the greatest regrets expressed by people at the end of life (according to hospice workers) are “I wish I’d taken more risks” and “I wish I ‘d lived my own dream.”
Someday is fool’s gold. It is a horizon that will never come. A wish never fulfilled.
Picture contents from Ali Abdall’s blog entry “How to make every minute count” were part of the Chapter 2 of the book “Someday is Today”.
