Important Questions In Life (Part 1)

I recently read a story which had me thinking. In the story, 3 simple but meaningful questions were raised. Today I’ll share with you the 1st question which is, “when is the most important time?”

Take some time to think through this question. What do you think? I believe all of us know the answer to this question, but some how sometimes we forget.

The answer to this question is a simple three letter word… “now”… Yes, now is the most important time because it is the only time we ever have. Not the past and not the future. The past is over and there is nothing we can do to turn back time. The future has yet to arrive and we do not know what will happen later. Even a few minutes from now, we cannot tell what is going to happen. The only time we know we have, that we can take action to do something is none other than the present moment. So, whatever you want to do, do it now.

If you want to tell your love ones how much you love them or how much they mean to you, tell them now. Or if you want to apologise to someone, do it now instead of giving yourself excuses to delay it. You will not know what will happen 5 minutes later, an hour later or tomorrow. We often hear of people regretting not saying or doing something earlier till it’s too late because the opportunity has passed and they will never have that chance anymore. If you don’t take action now, the opportunity may not come again. So, don’t procrastinate, or you may live to regret it when it’s too late.

Remember this…“If not now, then when?”

I shall leave you with the next question, “Who is the most important person?” for you to ponder on and share more with you tomorrow. So stay tuned…
