IT'S NEVER TOO LATE (AGAIN)…

This week, I want to talk to you about why it's never too late to do something (again). Unfortunately, life is full of moments that we often let pass by us too quickly and later regret, as we either hesitate or become overly cautious, missing opportunities that never come again.

Opportunities are all around us, aren’t they? Whether you're contemplating something you think may be too early to do, or something that you need to do sooner, rather than later, timing should not be a deterrent. There's no perfect time to start something.

Always embrace any challenge and don’t let age or timing dictate your choices. Remember that dreams don't have expiration dates. You must seize the moment and act before it is too late, when you can’t do it anymore. Understand the importance and urgency of taking action before it’s too late.

Although it’s good advice to start early, it’s also never too late to do so. Usually, it’s only when you get older in life that you realise the importance of having started something earlier to benefit from it. Unfortunately, we often face procrastination. Procrastination stems from fear.

Here are some examples:

- You realise that it’s never too late to resume your education and find that you can still achieve something you’ve always wanted, like a degree. - You discover a new passion and skill you did not know you had, such as learning to play a musical instrument, paint, or learn a new language. - You find that, even though you are comparatively old now, you can still participate in big sporting events like marathons, which also promote healthier living.

For some, the idea of something being "too late" may resonate, due to practical constraints. It’s important to have realistic expectations, but remember also the importance of starting early, because there may be something you later find that you could have actually done, if you had started it earlier.

So, this week, please remember that seizing opportunities transcends age and timing. Embrace possibilities, wherever and whenever they arise. Yes, you may feel at first that you should have started something earlier, but always remind yourself that it’s never too late to do or say something!
