Proverbs

There is an ancient Japanese proverb that goes something like this,

"The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is now."

Why do we wait to start doing something? Whatever it is you want in life, do it now. I've waited to do things before, but I've learned that nothing happens until you do something about it. Don't wait to get involved in a club, to try to make new friends, or to do better in school. Do it now. If you had planted your tree earlier, you would have your tree now. However, if you don't go ahead and plant your tree, you may never have your tree. Today is as good as any other day to begin whatever it is that you want to do.
