"Embrace the importance of now, and refuse to allow the lull of comfort, fear, familiarity, and ego to prevent you from taking action on your ambitions...The cost of inaction is vast. Don't go to your grave with your best work inside of you. Choose to die empty."

Most of us live with the stubborn idea that we'll always have tomorrow to do our most important and valuable work. We fill our days with frantic activity, bouncing from task to task, scrambling to make deadlines and chase the next promotion. But by the end of each day we're often left asking ourselves "did the work I do today really matter?" We feel the ticking of the clock, but we're stuck in first gear, unsure of the path forward and without a road map to guide us.

“拥抱现在的重要性，拒绝让舒适、恐惧、熟悉和自我的平静阻止你对自己的雄心壮志采取行动……无所作为的代价是巨大的。不要带着你最好的作品走进坟墓。选择空着死去。”
我们大多数人都有一种固执的想法，那就是我们永远都有明天去做我们最重要、最有价值的工作。我们每天都在疯狂地活动，从一项任务跳到另一项任务，争先恐后地制定最后期限，追逐下一次晋升。但在每天结束时，我们常常会问自己：“我今天做的工作真的重要吗？”我们感觉到时间在滴答作响，但我们被困在第一档，不确定前进的道路，没有路线图指引我们。
