I will do it tomorrow.

 I will do it tomorrow.

There can be a tomorrow for every one of us, but today's hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds will not be added to tomorrow's 24 hours if we fail to use them now. There is a saying: "The bad news is time flies, but the good news is you are the pilot." Many people keep saying, "I will do it tomorrow," even though they know they have the time to do it today. This attitude towards time stems from lethargy and develops into the habit of procrastination. This habit can slowly take over your life, leading to a constant last-minute rush and increased adrenaline spikes.

Think about how many times you have said, "I will do it tomorrow," only to keep repeating it. Tomorrow is a new day, and we should use it for new activities rather than for clearing pending tasks.

There is a humorous saying in Hindi:

आज करे सो कल कर, कल करे सो परसो, इतनी भी क्या जल्दी है जब जीना है हमें बरसों

Its translation is below:

"What you can do today, do tomorrow; what you can do tomorrow, do the day after. What's the big hurry when we have so many years to live?"

If we live by this humorous saying, crises will flood our lives, and we will drown in perennial stress. However, the real, timeless wisdom was stated by Saint Kabirdas:

काल करे सो आज कर, आज करे सो अब। पल में परलय होएगी, बहुरि करेगा कब॥

Its translation is below:

"What you plan to do tomorrow, do today; what you plan to do today, do now. In a moment, everything can be destroyed, and then when will you get another chance?"

For ages, since ancient days long before the watch was invented, great thinkers from Socrates to modern gurus like Stephen R. Covey have stressed the importance of time.

Remember, we do not undergo bad times in life because time itself is never bad. It is how we use the present moment that determines our future.
