To Be Today!

Mason Cooley has wisely said," Procrastination makes easy things harder ". Each one of us suffers from this syndrome of putting off things until tomorrow. I too had it in my thoughts until I had to face lots of inconvenience and embarrassment on account of it. In our scriptures also, we are exhorted to do what we are supposed to do immediately without wasting time. Postponing an action is like defeating its very purpose or delaying or weakening the results. 

It is an incident that happened to my uncle last month. It was Saturday evening; he was driving home after purchasing groceries for the month. As he reached near home, his eyes fell on the fuel indicator; it was critically low. He has divided between and having the tank filled the next day, as it was Sunday.

Sunday passed in just jiffy, relaxing and having fun at home and he forget that his car fuel tank was famishing. Monday morning he woke up with work on his mind. Hurriedly he got ready for the office. As he was driving to the office after a quick breakfast, his car stopped all of a sudden in the middle of the crowded road. It dawned at him why the car had stopped. The fuel warning light was blinking at him, reminding him of his procrastination. He had to face a lot of embarrassment and inconvenience that day. So " Never leave tomorrow what you can do today ".
