Developing Resilience



Put it off arrow Do it now


The early bird gets the worm. - Anon

Have you been in a situation so difficult that you didn't know what to do? Have you ever faced a project that involved so much work that you didn't know where to start? Have you ever said, "Mañana, I will do it tomorrow." But wisdom tells us, "Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today." Tomorrow will bring its own challenges and we want to be fresh to face them. This can be difficult if we are carrying yesterday's "leftovers" into today!

Longfellow

Henry Longfellow





Sometimes people put things off because they think they are not ready for them. The fact is, there is no "magic moment". Seize the day! Use the "now" moments of your life. The moment once past cannot return, and the moment you are waiting for may never come.


A "do it now" attitude helps you progress! The less one does the less time one finds to do it in. Busy people always find time.

One of the most important reasons for not putting things off is to live in the present moment. Whether we realize it or not, every moment is a miracle we should savour and enjoy.
