Have you ever noticed how “tomorrow” is like that one elusive sock you can never find after doing the laundry? Or trying to find motivation on a Monday- you’re more likely to catch a greased-up squirrel! It’s always just out of reach, taunting you from the mysterious land of “I’ll get to it later.” But here’s the fact: tomorrow never actually comes! It’s like a mirage in the desert—always on the horizon, but never quite there.
And while we’re waiting for tomorrow to arrive, life is out here, doing its thing, waving pom-poms, and cheering us on. Yet, too often, we’re sitting on the sidelines, thinking, “I’ll do that tomorrow.” Guess what? Life doesn’t do rain checks.
Here are some tips so you don’t waste any more time…
Ring Your Grandparents!
If you’re lucky enough to have grandparents, give them a call. You know they’re just waiting to tell you about the latest gossip from the hair salon or give you a weather update (as if you don’t have an app for that). And trust me, they’ll be thrilled to hear from you. Plus, they’ve got some amazing stories and life hacks up their sleeves. Listen to them and smile. One day you wont get that luxury.
Text That Friend
Do you ever think about a friend and then get distracted by, well, life? Same. But if you think about someone, just text them. Don’t overthink it. Even if it’s just a meme or a “Hey, remember when…?” It might make their day (and yours too). Plus, you’ll feel like a superhero for spreading some love and laughter in this crazy world.
Smile Like You Mean It
You know how people say smiles are contagious? It’s true! Next time you’re out and about, just flash that winning smile at a stranger. You might get some weird looks, but you might also make someone’s day a little brighter. And hey, it’s worth it just to see what happens. Maybe you’ll start a new trend—who knows?
Book the Holiday!
Speaking of trends, let’s talk about one that needs to end: putting off holidays and your bucket list. You’ve been scrolling through Insta, drooling over beach pics and thinking, “Someday, I’ll go there.” Newsflash: “Someday” is just another sneaky alias for “Tomorrow.” Book the trip. Your tan and your mental health will thank you later.
Affiliate Marketing: Your Ticket to Freedom?
Now, let’s get real about time. We’ve all been told that we need to hustle 24/7 to make ends meet. But what if I told you that’s a crock of nonsense? Enter affiliate marketing. It’s like that magical goose that lays golden eggs—no feeding required.
With affiliate marketing, you can earn money while you’re living your best life, doing things that make you happy. It’s not about working harder; it’s about working smarter. Imagine getting paid while you’re out there dancing like no one’s watching or having a long lunch with the family. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, it’s more attainable than you think. A few hours every day and consistency, and you could be raking it in while sipping margaritas on the beach.

Hug Your Family, Dance in the Kitchen While Cooking , and Learn To Love Life
Here’s the bottom line: Life is happening right now. Not tomorrow, not next week—*right now*. Hug your loved ones like it’s the last time you’ll see them. Dance in your living room like you’re auditioning for “Strictly Come Dancing” (because who’s really watching, anyway?). And above all, love life like it’s the greatest gift you’ve ever received—because it is. The best things in life are not things, they are moments
So go ahead, take that leap, make that call, and live every single day like it’s your last. After all, tomorrow never comes.

Hi Sarah thanks for provide such an up-lifting post, you always make me smile when I’m reading them. You are absolutely right that tomorrow never comes even with the best intentions! I have had times where I was thinking of friends and got pulled back into that day’s chaos, but you inspired me to reach out and give them a shout! Here’s to giving those hugs, preforming those dance steps or whatever is floating your boat, Have a Great Week Ahead!
Give them a message or a phone call, it will take 2 minutes out of your day but it may just be the 1 thing that makes their day.
Hi Sarah,
This post is an absolute wake-up call! I love the energy and humor you’ve infused into such an important message. It’s a great reminder that waiting for the “perfect” moment is just another way to delay living life to the fullest. Your tips are great! Calling grandparents, texting friends, smiling at strangers, and just booking that holiday already! These small actions really do make life richer.
Your thoughts on affiliate marketing are compelling too. It’s refreshing to hear about a way to gain freedom without burning out, and you’ve made it sound so attainable. I’m definitely intrigued!
Thanks for sharing such an uplifting and motivating read. Time to stop waiting and start doing!
Looking forward to the next one!

Hey, Sarah!
Your posts are like a breath of fresh air! 🙂 We tend to plan great things for tomorrow when we should plan to do them this week, and even better today. One of my favorite phrases is Do what you can when you can do it. This is especially important to me because my health tends to act up, so I must use my good times to make the best of times. Your final call to hug family, dance like nobody’s watching, and truly embrace life’s moments is the perfect way to wrap it all up. Your post is a wonderful reminder that the best time to live fully is right now.
Here’s to living in the moment!

“Do what you can when you can” is perfect. Make the best of those good days.
Sarah, you have some good tips to not waste any more time. In regards to smiling like you mean it…I have a sign that sits on my shelf and it reads, “SMILE! It makes ’em wonder what you’ve been up to!”.
And when the finances improve I’m raring to go on a holiday for sure! Currently that’s happening tomorrow. 🙁

Robert, I love that! As soon as I reasd it, it made me smile. Thank you for sharing it. I’m going to try and buy a sign that says it.
Hi Sarah – I truly love how the theme of all of your blog posts tends to be kindness! I also appreciate how you are tying this theme into running your business in Affiliate marketing. Getting to something specific on your post, I truly wish I could call my grandparents now that I am one. I often covet their time and their wisdom and only wish that I could ask them questions as I get older. The experiences they have are invaluable as we can all learn from older generations. And by older, I don’t necessarily mean older in age, I mean older in wisdom and knowledge. Just today, I texted a friend and we had a nice long Texting conversation which turned into a nice long phone conversation. Reaching out to others who we find dear now before we get into a situation where we aren’t able is so vastly important. When we reach the success needed in this business, we will be able to capitalize on that and do more and more of it as we find we have the time to do it. But I will not let time be the excuse and I will find the time and make the time, if you will, to not let these opportunities get past me. Thank you again, for such a wonderful post!
A great post and a prudent reminder about the importance of living in the moment, being grateful and appreciative of what we have now. A good reminder to divert the energy we use for the thinking, the planning and the waiting for “tomorrow” and to the moment we are currently in! Thank you
Your posts are so uplifting and always a pleasure to read. I am sitting here with a huge smile on my face. I am so inspired right now to do something nice for someone else, today and not tomorrow. Thank you for lifting my day.
