Tomorrow Does Not Exist

We've all heard it, or said it, "Someday (or tomorrow) I will do this or be this." I would bet that we've all said that we will do something one day. There's nothing wrong with dreams like being something or someone someday. We all strive for success and to have certain things. The problem is we usually don't get it because it doesn't have soon enough. I think the biggest thing is we are a now type of people. We want it right now! We have fast food, instant coffee, instant potatoes, and so on. We are just people who are used to getting what we want, when we want it. However, when it comes to getting somewhere in life such as being successful we say we'll get there one day and we end up putting it off and then forgetting about it. So, I'll propose this to you. Tomorrow does not exist. Tomorrow is a word to describe our hope to live another day. Tomorrow is a fantasy that we will live to see another sunset and sunrise. Tomorrow does not exist, it is a lie.

I have met a lot of people in my life time and none of them have had the power to know what tomorrow holds and know that they would make it to live another day. Sure we all talk about it and plan for it but none of us actually have the power to know what it holds. We could very well not make it to tomorrow. I don't say this to say that we should have a fear of death. Death is a part of life and can be around the corner. You will only limit yourself from reaching success if you are constantly worrying about if you'll die. What I am saying is we should not take each day and plan big things for tomorrow. We need to take each day by the horns and ride it for the full ride. Take advantage of each moment we have. We all have the same 24 hours in a day but some of us waste it sleeping in or watching mind numbing TV and movies. Nothing wrong with those things, I love to sleep and I like a good TV show and a good movie, but I can't just sit there all day or else I feel like I did absolutely nothing. If you want something you have to go get it in this moment. You can't just put it off for tomorrow. Which of us knows what tomorrow truly holds. So why plan for tomorrow what can be done today.

I've met a lot of people in the past couple months who say they are waiting for the new year to sell their home when the market picks up. If you wait till then you'll miss the opportunities of today. Today the inventory is low and we have buyers looking and they are willing to place bids higher than what you're listed for if there are multiple offers on your home. Our rates are low now. No one knows what they will actually do next year. We are assuming they will go up with the changes coming to the mortgage industry with the new year.

So why wait? Take advantage of the market as it is today. Take advantage of the present. Let's start living in a way that takes full advantage of the day we are blessed with in the here and now. Tomorrow does not exist. Tomorrow is a fantasy. Tomorrow is a lie!
