“He’s finally a doctor at 64."

The national daily (September 12, 2005) front page read, he finally achieved his long cherished wish when he graduated from the Medical College here. Reading the news should spark some motivation to many people. What is the motivation behind a sixty-four years grandfather with heart problem to pursue dream of becoming a medical doctor after retirement age of fifty-five?

It’s reminded me of a story I heard; an old woman was enrolling for a degree program in the university with her younger son! The son was feeling a little embarrassed and was trying to talk his smother out of the idea. After sever fail attempts, he finally said the truth, “Mother, you will be sixty years old when you graduated three years from now!” The mother looked at the young man and calmly replied, “my son, I will still be sixty years old three years from now with or without the degree!" So how old will you be with or without achieving your goal three or five years from now?

What are the excuses you were telling yourself and your family, the one you love or the one who loves you?

When are you taking the First Step into the unknown to reach for your DREAM?

Who do you listen to? The little Gizmo on you left say "you can't do it!" or the little angel on you right say "YES! YOU CAN! GO FOR IT!"

What action have you taken today to make your life a little better each and every day?

Some one once said, "Life is not made of big sacrifices, but of little deed that make every day a joyous and fruitful day!"

Put behind the excuse for a moment, slow down the pace of your daily rat race and find a quiet corner, or if you are the type of person who are more productive in noisy environment, find a caf? with a judebox and blast it to the fullest. Start writing down your “Dreams List” and made Online Business one of your priority. It can be as noble as becoming the community leader of your area; as common as seeing your son or daughter going through colleges; or as simply as fixing the broken picket fence in your garden. Or even bring your children to watch their favorite movie that they had been pestering you for days or weeks.

Remember "Rome is not built in one Day" and "The journey of a thousand miles start with a single step!"

But for one thing, sit down and think seriously, how long are you still wanted to be in the rat race?

How nice if you can have more of your time to fix all your picket fence!

Becoming the community that you have long aiming for but "no time" to serve!

Bring you children to and back from school personally each and everyday!

Bring them for the movie that they has being pestering you!

Remember this Tip On No Time! The late Norman Vincent Pearle once said," The only people who have no time is laying six feet underground." If you are contended with working 80+ hours a week then nobody will blame you. But; just but, what if you use your spare hour to starting you online business and can lead you to Financial Freedom? And if you want something badly enough, you will ALWAYS find enough time to make it happen. Burn the midnight oil for a few months and see what happens.

ACT NOW! Don't wait until you are 64!

Many years later, you will cherish what you have done today as some one once said,

“If you do not have dreams, how are you going to make you dreams come true!"
