“I don’t complain about not having enough time… what I have is enough. Today—this very day—will accomplish what no tomorrow can ignore. I’ll take on the impossible and make my mark on the world.” - Seneca

If you keep waiting for the “perfect time” to start, you risk losing momentum, and missing real opportunities.

We always think we’ll have more time. More time to improve, to take action, to be our best selves.

But as Seneca reminds us, today is the only time that truly matters. Tomorrow won’t remember the intentions you never acted on.

Small actions today lay the groundwork for tomorrow’s success. Stop delaying. Start now.

Actionable tips:

• If you’re tempted to save your follow-ups for tomorrow, take five minutes to send at least one email or make one call. It could be the difference between closing a deal and losing out.
• At the start of each day, pick one challenging task you've been putting off and tackle it before lunch. The sense of accomplishment will boost your confidence for the rest of the day.
• Break the 'someday' mentality. If there’s a skill you've been meaning to develop, don’t wait. Block out 20 minutes today to start learning, whether it’s reading up on negotiation techniques or watching a quick training video.

Remember you will die.
