Chapter 4: Get out of the Someday Isle

Someday Isle is the place of procrastination. When you have a habit of dreamily thinking about your goals and desires but never taking a single step to actually achieve them, you belong to the Someday Isle.

You might have said this before:

-Someday I’ll start a new business.

-Someday I’ll learn a new language.

-Someday I’ll write my own book.

-Someday I’ll buy a new house.

-Someday I’ll find a new job.

-Someday I'll…

But ask yourself from the time that you said it until now, what have you done so far to make it happen? You must have the determination to start. When? It has to be now! Quit talking. Quit dreaming. Start doing! Don’t do for tomorrow what you can do for today.

Make your someday to today. Your dreams will remain dreams unless acted upon by an outside force. (Law of Inertia!) Everybody wants to improve their life but most of the time, it remains just a “want.” You must put your time, effort and sometimes money to make it happen.

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.”

- Rabindranath Tagore
