Want to know the quote I have hanging on my Coaching Room wall? One of my favourite favourites of all time?
It’s this one:
It’s a Chinese proverb which says “The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best time is now.”
So good, yes?
🧘♀️ When was the best time to take up yoga, and keep up your practice every day? Well, twenty tears go, but the second best time is NOW.
🧼 When was the best time for you to have started that amazing skin care routine? Well, twenty tears go, but the second-best time is NOW.
💰 When was the best time for you to have started saving extra for retirement? Well, twenty tears go, but the second-best time is NOW.
🚶♀️ When was the best time for you to stop eating sugar/start doing 10000 steps a day? Well, twenty tears go, but the second-best time is NOW.
You get it.
Anything seriously life-enhancing benefits from longevity and the benefit of compounding returns. From it becoming so routine and such a habit it just becomes our natural baseline of how we take care of ourselves.
The same goes for taking care of our mental and emotional health.
“The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best time is now.”
