WRITING-IF NOT TODAY WHEN
3/10/2017
Have you ever been guilty of putting off something that you should be doing? I know I have. Then one day either you rush around because you are under the gun to complete the task or you drop the idea completely and let it pass by. Since most of my posts are about writing why should this one be different. I came up with this group of factual numbers to place everything in perspective so here we go! THE OLDEST CALIFORNIA REDWOOD STILL STANDING IS 730,000 DAYS OLD. THAT IS SEVEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY THOUSAND DAYS. AND NOW COMES THE HOOK, THE REASON FOR ALL THE NUMBERS. DID YOU KNOW THAT IF WE LIVE UNTIL THE AGE 100, THAT EQUATES TO 36,500 DAYS---THAT IS THIRTY SIX THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DAYS.
IF WE ARE ONLY REALLY PRODUCTIVE TWENTY FIVE OF THOSE YEARS IT MEANS WE HAVE 9,125 DAYS TO MAKE OUR LIVES MEANINGFUL. THAT IS NINE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE DAYS. THIS IS FOR EVERYONE WHO EVER WANTED TO SIT DOWN AND WRITE, BUT HASN'T FOUND THE TIME. #grancanyon,#newyork,#redwoods,#californiaredwood,#greatwallofchina,#time, #timewaster,#procrastination,#excuses,#robertstephen,#theimpossibleisalwaysimpossible,#writing |
