“Don’t regret over the past because it’s over. Don’t worry about the future because it is not here yet.”- Thich Nhat Tu

All you have is now, right now. What are you doing with it? If you are not using it to do positive things, life changing things, you are wasting it. Don’t waste your time. Because it is limited. You are not going to be here forever. So use your time wisely.

“Never quit halfway.”- Thich Nhat Tu

You are not a quitter. You are a winner. When things are not going well for you, don’t quit, just take a break.

“Real peace always comes from within.”- Thich Nhat Tu

“Real peace always comes from within.” That is because everything happens within. The life within controls the life without. Your inside life is more important than your outside life. So if you want to feel great on the outside, you must first pay attention to how you feel within.

“Don’t be a fool to waste your precious time and life.”- Thich Nhat Tu

Remove wastes from your life to be productive. According to Stephen Covey, “first thing first.” All you have is now. All you have is this moment. So if you want your future to be better than what you have now, you must remove wastes from your life. You must remove wastes from your work. Do the important things first. Remove unproductive friends from your life. Do not do what they do. Do what you do. If you want to achieve your dreams, you must do your own thing.

“When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back.”– Paulo Coelho

When it comes to your life, your growth, your success, whether you want to change yourself or not, life will not wait. Life will continue. Life will not look back. Your opportunities will not wait. Your clock will not stop. Your soul will not wait. Because if you don’t use your mind, it will deteriorate. Frank Herbert said, “Live the best life you can.” Live your life. Live your life in the present, not in the past. We don’t live our lives. Why is that? Because we live in the past. Believe it or not, it is time to change your home address. If you don’t, life will not wait. It continues. Life continues.

“Every man has his own destiny: the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him.”– Henry Miller

When it comes to your life, live it. You have what it takes to live it. Just do it. Do not bring your past regrets into your present life. No matter what may have happened to you in your past, do not let it keep you away from your dreams. Do not wait for someone to change your life for you. It is your responsibility to do it for yourself. Do not limit yourself. You can live a good life. You can live a courageous life. You can live a happy life. No matter what, do not make the mistake of settling for less. You are better than less. You are for more, not less. To make that happen, you must do your own part.
