Imagine there is a bank which credits your account each morning with $86,400
but carries over no balance from day to day, allows you to keep no cash balance
and every evening cancels whatever part of the amount you had failed to use
during the day. What would you do?
Draw out every cent, of course!
Well, everyone has such a bank. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the records of the day. If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no going back. There is no drawing against the "tomorrow". You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success!
The clock is running. Make the most of today...

AND...
Remember..... time waits for no one
I know, a lot of you out there are like me, the essence of procrastination, but perhaps we should all try to fix that problem... I know I'm gonna try to do better... starting tomorrow.
