“Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first.”

Ernestine Ulmer
1892 - 1987
American Writer

Why aren’t you doing what you want to do right now?
Are you waiting until – what? – you have more free time?

Life only promises us “now.” 
The time we have been given is this moment.

Next hour, next week or next year is never guaranteed.

What excuses are you making to yourself?
Stop making excuses and just do it.

Take the first stop now.
Take the next step tomorrow.

Make sure fun is not one of the things you are delaying.
Eat your dessert first every now and then.

You may never get another chance 
to do what’s really important to you.

Yours in achieving your personal best . . .
