Facts Friday: We Have Two Lives, Are You On To Your Second?
Today's Friday Fact hits hard.
"We have two lives; the second begins when we realise we only have one." - Confucius.
Whether you believe in reincarnation or not, put that aside for now.
On this earth, this life you are living, this time that you have, you will not get back.
The opportunities missed to play with your daughter will not come crawling back.
The workouts you bailed on to watch Netflix will not present themselves to you again.
The extra hours you could have worked to get the promotion over 'the other guy' cannot be done again at a later time.
You only get one shot at this bud.
Yet so many people live as if they have another go at this.
So wake the f*ck up and get pumped for life because there is no other go.
There's no rewind button or time machine that will get you time back.
Say "yes", wake up early, train your body, grow your skills, love your friends and family and make memories because you're not getting younger either.
I've seen people deteriorate and people age like fine wines and the difference is the priority on health.
This body you live in, you only have one.
So look after it as if it's the last prototype you have (because it is).
