According to Og Mandino, "Always think that this day is your last day". a simple reminder but matters a lot, a simple saying but enlightens our heart. Every day, every hour, and even every second is important. it is the most crucial and greatest gift of God. Every morning, when we wake up, it is the first thing that we thank God, another day to enjoy life and do all the things we must and want to do. we should always think that today will be better than yesterday. God wants us all to succeed. Thus, we must endeavor in life. We must always give our 100% effort in every work we are about to do even in the smallest one. We should always look the things bigger than it is. do all our best. think that we can do anything. We want all these things but we are afraid to them because of rejections. We do not want to be rejected. We have fears that all of these won't work and succeed. But rejections, these are only trials and challenges given to us to mold ourselves into better ones and test our strength, determination and most especially our faith in Him. We can never learn new things if we do not commit mistakes. They teach us lessons in life. We should always remember that failures are inspiration, not frustration. Let us live our lives to the fullest. We should not waste even just a second in our life. Enjoy it, do all the things that will make us happy and be beneficial to others. Show our love and concerns to our love ones maybe because tomorrow, life won't allow us to do these anymore. don't take things for granted, so that in the end, we will not feel regretful. At the end of the day, we can see ourselves better than before.

Truly we should always do our best in doing whatever endeavors we have in life , as if it is the last. That way, even if we are already called by our Maker, we have lived our life to the fullest already. Thus, we should not be always materially well-off but spiritually well-off always!

yes, I heard it also though at times I kinda not treating every moment as if it's my last. It just pops out my mind some times. We should have a mindset like that. To savor every moment that we have here on earth. Being good and kind to others and living life to the fullest are only few of it.

It is a good thing you have that copy. I have some favourite poem from his writings, I Will Act Now y Og Mandino. Have you read it?
