A "late" start

Today I woke up later than I planned to. Among my commitments this year and beyond was to wake up early every morning and begin my day powerfully. So far this year, I have stuck to it. So, today when I didn't get quit enough sleep last night and slept 2 hours later than usual, I felt thrown off. I got up slowly, I dragged, I found myself thinking about all I had to do and now I was off to a late start. then, I took a moment to breath and "get a grip". I got present and looked around and realized that I slept another two hours because my body needed the rest. I was stressed in that moment because I was regretting not getting up sooner (the past) and worrying if I would accomplish what I wanted to (the future. Once I breathed and looked around (got present) I was at ease. I can relate this to thought that I have had in the past. I found my passion and purpose late, I got married "late", I started my business late, I do not have children "yet" and I'm 39. I now have appreciation that I know that my purpose is to empower people to live their dreams, I am married to an amazing woman, I have a rapidly growing business and one day soon (no spreading rumors) a little human will call me "daddy". Don't let regrets of what you have not done, prevent you from living your dreams now. There are no late starts, there is only now!
