Most people don't find out what the real meaning of life is until it's time to die. Then, when confronted with their mortal nature, they awaken and perceive the deeper meanings of life and realize all that they did not experience.

Life can be tough in this regard. Very often, the gifts it bestows upon us may not be perceived until the end.

When we are young and have our whole life ahead of us, instead of living, we tend to procrastinate. "Next year I will spend more time in nature or laugh more or love more. Next year I will spend more time with my children and read the greatest works of literature. Next year I will see more sunsets and make better friendships. Nevertheless, now, I have other things to do".

These are the common refrains of the age in which we live. Well then, personally what i learned is that, if you don't start taking action in your life, life usually acts on your behalf. Days become weeks and weeks months and, before you know it, life ends.

So the lesson is clear: Stop living life leaving things to chance, and start living by planning your life.

Re-enter the game and take action to create the richest reality, that deep in your heart you know you are meant to create.

Start living your life today as you wish you had lived it when you are now just before death.

Or to paraphrase Mark Twain, live your life so that even the undertaker cries at your funeral.
