If you wait to act you'll be left behind

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now. - Chinese Proverb

If you haven't already done so, do it.  It's of no use to procrastinate.  Although, an argument can be made that it could've been done before therefore it can be done later, this logic is flawed.  Often it must be done now because it should've been done sooner and waiting will be too late.  This law applies to many things.  It's not just limited to nature.  In business if you wait to act you'll be left behind.  Waiting until the last minute with finances or benefits could cost you in the end.  With your health, if you ignore warning signs, don't take precautionary measures, or wait when you feel ill, you may place your life in danger.  Life's lessons from a tree, sow the seeds you should have already grown today for a better tomorrow.
