FINDING SOMEDAY

“Someday I will do that.”  “Someday I am going to achieve my dreams and have the life I always wanted.”  “Someday soon I will get started on that project.”  How many times have you said, or heard said the most meaningless of all words… Someday?  I mean, just when is someday?  It is not listed as one of the seven days of the week.  I have never seen it listed as a holiday in any country in the world.  No one has ever reached it to mark it down on their calendar.  And yet so many people put all their hopes and dreams on its attainment.

                Let me just cut to the chase here.  Someday never comes.  Why?  Because someday does not exist.  There has never been nor will there ever be a someday.  You can look back on yesterday; you can look forward to tomorrow, but you can only live in the present.  Success-minded people know that there are only these three options they can choose from.  Of these three, they will always look to the present for it is the only one that really can make a difference.

"Someday is not a day of the week."

                Success only happens when action is taken to achieve the goals set before us.  Nothing happens without action.  You cannot take action someday.  It must be done today or it will never happen at all.  The action you took yesterday is gone now and you can build on it, but you cannot claim it for today.  The action you will take tomorrow is important, however, you cannot add it to today’s schedule of events.  The only action that matters is the action taken right now, today.

                Do not make the mistake of planning on a someday experience.  Do not put your dreams in a someday that will never come.  Live in the now, today, the present.  You can do anything and achieve any goal if you take decisive and consistent action in the present.  Someday is only a wish and wishes are made of smoke and soon blow away never to seem again.
