Don't Waste Too Much Time Thinking, Just Do

We all make plans, sometimes we plan and act accordingly and sometimes we just daydream about our plans and never act. Daydreaming gives everyone a lot of pleasure but we get more pleasure when we achieve what we desire. Making plans or setting targets for ourselves is good but I have seen some people who just keep on planning or daydreaming but never actually work to achieve those targets which is a huge waste of time and mind. I mean the time spent making plans or daydreaming can be utilized for doing something productive rather than just wasting it doing nothing.

I have a colleague who is always busy making plans about moving abroad and starting his own business there. I know this man for the last six and a half years in these six and a half years not a single day has passed by at work when he did not tell me about his plans and I motivate him a lot to pursue his dreams and even gather and provide him information about things he talk about doing but he never tries to achieve anything at all. This guy is working with the same organization for the last twenty seven years and that’s a huge amount of time and never once tried to follow his heart and pursue his dreams. One day a senior employee of the company told me that this guy is telling his plans to go abroad and all other things ever since he joined the company and I was really shocked to know that. How can a person talk about a particular thing for twenty seven long years and never once try to achieve it? I personally believe that he has wasted twenty seven precious years of his life thinking and dreaming about something that he never made an effort to achieve and now he regrets that when he had time he never tried and now time is not in his favor as he has grown old and has a lot of responsibilities now but still he continues to think about it.

If a person wants to achieve something in life and is passionate about it then he/she should not waste too much time thinking about it and must at least try to achieve his/her aim. Life is too short for regrets and if we waste a lot of time thinking than one day we will regret it but the time will not be on our side. We should struggle to achieve our ambitions while we have the time to do so or else we will regret it later but by then it will be too late and that will be very painful and we will end up cursing ourselves for never trying. So, don’t think too much and just do.
