Tomorrow - by Anonymous

They had decided they would be, all that they wanted to be—Tomorrow.

None would be braver, kinder, or smarter than they would be—Tomorrow.

They would seek out their friend who was troubled and weary, to let them know they called to lift them up, and see what they could do for them—Tomorrow.

Each day they would neatly prepare lists and stack up the letters and notes they needed to write, the calls they should make and the important things they needed to do—Tomorrow.

They even made a list of the people they wanted to fill with delight—Tomorrow.

You see, the greatest of people, they might have been, and the world would have opened its heart to them, if only they had not relied on—Tomorrow.

But in fact, as they went through life and avoided all the things they could put off until—Tomorrow,—one day they realized their life had passed them by and they had not achieved what they wanted to be, because they had never done the mountain of worthy things they had planned to do—Tomorrow.

“Procrastination happens when we believe we will experience some kind of pain, if we do the meaningful business and personal tasks we should be doing. Procrastination is one of the biggest killers of keeping a person from accomplishing their full potential in life. The first two letters in Goals is “Go”, so as Nike says… ‘Just Do It.’ Don’t put those important things off any longer. Overcome your fears.”
