Do you think you are more capable to deal with the failure or the regret of not trying at all? Are you living the life you want or the life everyone else wants for you? Would you feel good spending your time on entertainment that might not last for long? Or would you feel good feeling like you are growing and have a better self of you to look at in the mirror? Similarly, would like to live in the present or would you love to work for a better future? If you are able to look at yourself and go through your whole life in the blink of an eye and cherish the memories as if you were right there at that moment. Believe me, you have had a long and important life to make you think of it all over again every day.
