Our time in this world is limited.
Whether you’re rich or poor,
well or unwell,
happy or unhappy,
evil or good,
all of us have the same ending.
No one on this planet can escape death. In fact, no living being can escape death.
The time is ticking.
You know our time isn’t unlimited in this world. Why do you keep putting your goal away? What’s stopping you from achieving your goals?
You always think ‘I will do the work tomorrow.’
There is no guarantee there will be a tomorrow. There is only today. And you have to get started today if you want to get somewhere in life.
Remember, you can’t live forever. But you can build things that live forever and continue to live in people’s hearts. The choice is yours.
