Later is the enemy, tomorrow is the enemy. The only true power to shape our destinies lies in taking action now. Now is the only time we have, or will have. The difference between successful people, and those that wish to be successful, are based solely on the actions they have taken. And those actions are taken based on if they are able to see the pleasure of taking the action, and the pain of inaction and procrastination. Understand success can only come after multiple failures. Failure is not the enemy, failure is the teacher. Failure is the result of trying and trying is the result of focus. Whatever we focus on we shall get. The proof is all around you in your life at this moment. It is all a result of your focus. Focus now on being the difference in the world you want to see. Focus on love, on faith, and being a difference. Be the action that changes the world. Make your life matter. Everyday alive is a day closer to death. Meet him with a smile. -Joseph Miller
