In the spring of 1871, a young medical student picked up a book and read twenty-one words that had a profound effect on his future. These words not only helped him to become the most famous physician of his generation, but when he died, two huge volumes were required to tell the story of his life.
His name was Sir William Osler. Here are the twenty-one words that he read: _Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand._
The future is today; there is no tomorrow...
Waste of energy, mental distress, nervous worries, all dog the steps of a person who is anxious about the future. The best possible way to prepare for tomorrow is to concentrate with all your intelligence, all your enthusiasm, on doing today's work, superbly, today.
This is the only possible way you can prepare for the future.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
