To change one's life: Start immediately. Do it flamboyantly.
No exceptions.
William James
You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've
done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message,
therefore, is clear. Do it! Develop an appreciation for the present moment.
Seize every second of your life and savor it. Value your present moments. Using
them up in any self-defeating ways means you've lost them forever.
Wayne Dyer quotes
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.
Milton Berle
There is great change to be experienced once you learn the

How did it get so late so soon?
Dr. Seuss
We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well
dance.
Japanese Proverb
Let today be the day you stop being haunted by the ghost of
yesterday. Holding a grudge & harboring anger/resentment is poison to the
soul. Get even with people...but not those who have hurt us, forget them,
instead get even with those who have helped us.

the indefinite future! Today is a new day!

It's later than you think.
Chinese Proverb
Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a
kite. Or waiting around for Friday
night or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil or a better
break or a string of pearls or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another
chance. Everyone is just
waiting.
Dr. Seuss
Don't ever save anything for a special occasion. Being alive is the special occasion.

When your life flashes before your eyes, make sure you've
got plenty to watch. Unknown
For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to
begin - real life. But there was
always some obstacle in the way. Something
to be got through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a
debt to be paid. Then life would
begin. At last it dawned on me
that these obstacles were my life.
Fr. Alfred D'Souza
