The difference between one cent and thirty three cents is a window of oppurtunity. A girl friend of mine calld me on Friday said that staples was having a sale on back to school items and since i will be starting back to school in october because i missed the firt term enrollment she thought this sale could help me. Well I did not make it past staples day in and day out. Wensday i started to go but i waisted time and then did not get to the store on that day. Thursday i applied myself. I left home early to stop by staples. Sunday thru wensday they offered spiral note pads for one cent each a limit of six per customer. Thursday when i got to the staples the same spiral note pads were thirty-three cent a peice.
this screamed to me that i offten waist time... on the things that will not help me move foward.
What window of oppuritunity have you missed?

OOh this discussion is so dear to me.
My son is the biggest procrastinator alive!
He missed going to school this semester because he refused to fill out his financial aid papers until it was too late. I'm not so sure it was a mistake on his part, I hope it was and hope he learns from it.
Just think....32x6=1.92 So you spent 1.92 more than you had to, plus all the additional time spent thinking "I need to go to staples"
When you miss deadlines you lose jobs
When you miss payments you lose homes or cars
When you miss sales your pocket book suffers
When you are late for a date, you might miss your perfect connection. You just never know.
