One of the Biggest Happiness Mistakes that I Keep Making, Over and Over.

“One lives in the naïve notion that later there will be more room than in the entire past.”
--Elias Canetti, The Human Province
I continually remind myself of this truth. Too often, I tell myself, "I'll have time for this when summer comes," "Things will slow down in the fall, and I'll be able to tackle this," "Next year, I'll do it."
No. Now is the time to do the things that are important to me.
It's false to believe that there will be more time in my future than there has in my past.
How about you? Do you promise yourself, "I'll do this -- later?"
