Even though we all know our life on earth is not timeless, we do not realize how short life is for us. Majority of us see life as far longer than it is in reality.
Since we think our existence is far longer than it really is, we are failing to live our lives to the fullest with countless procrastination at our feet.

So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
Even if tomorrow reaches you and you have chased the things that you want in life without achieving the results you really wanted, you will not be much disappointed. You will be more disappointed by those things that you did not do and left them for tomorrow…Continue Reading From Here
