Life is a gift. Live your life. Don’t waste it. Don’t try to be who you are not. Do not compare yourself to others. Compare yourself to yourself. Because you are a unique human being. Celebrate your life with what you have. Stop thinking about what is missing in your life. Celebrate your life. Start today. Do it today. Do it now!

“Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for helping.”- Jordan Peterson

There is no time to waste on useless things. The only time you have here on earth is yours to enjoy. Treat yourself with love and respect. Never say negative things about yourself. If you don’t have anything good to say, just say, “Thank God.” That is enough.

Do not be afraid to express yourself. Because you are here on earth to express yourself, not to depress yourself. Live your life. It is yours to live. Do not delay your life. Do not delay living. If you don’t know what to do with your life, just live it. As Agatha Christie once said, “I like living. I have sometimes been wildly despairing, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I have know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.”

If Not Now, When?

To start anything, to get something done, to work on yourself, there is no perfect time to do it. The best time to take action is now. Now is the best time to face your fears. Now is the best time to stop pleasing people.

If you don’t take action now to create a better life, you are going to wait forever. Why is that? Because there is no perfect time to live your life. Stop planning to live. Stop planning to start something. Just start.

Because there is no perfect time to start something. Because there is no perfect time to live your life. If you do not live now, when are you going to live your life?

If you do not do it now, when are you going to do it?

If you are not planning now, when are you going to start?

If you are scared of facing your fears, when are you going to face them. Because they are there. If you want to succeed, you must do something about your fears.

If not now, when? If not now, when? If you do not do it, who will?

What are you waiting for? Who are you waiting for? Don’t wait. Because no one is waiting for you.

If you don’t have the courage to change things now, when are you going to have it? If not now, when are you going to take action? If not now, when? When?
