We must always remain in the present

By seeing the past I gain nothing. By knowing the future I gain something. By living in the present I gain everything. 

We must always remain in the present. This present is constantly ready to bring the golden future into our heart. Today's achievement is the most satisfactory, but we have to feel that today's achievement is nothing in comparison to what tomorrow's achievement will be. Each time satisfaction dawns, we have to feel that this satisfaction is nothing in comparison to the satisfaction that is about to dawn. We have to feel that every second brings new life, new growth, new opportunity. If we are ready to allow change into our life at every second, every minute, every day, we are bound to grow.

Sing not soulful songs 

With your yesterday's mind.

Sing fruitful songs

With your today's heart.

Privind trecutul nu castig nimic. Cunoscand viitorul castig ceva. Traind in prezent castig totul.

Trebuie sa ramanem mereu in prezent. Acest prezent este mereu gata sa aduca viitorul de aur in inima noastra. Realizarea de astazi este cea mai plina de satisfactie, dar trebuie sa ne dam seama ca realizarea de astazi este nimic in comparatie cu ce va fi realizarea de maine. De fiecare data cand apare satisfactia, trebuie sa simtim ca aceasta satisfactie nu e nimic in comparatie cu satisfactia care va urma. Trebuie sa simtim ca fiecare secunda aduce o noua viata, o noua crestere, o noua ocazie. Daca suntem gata sa permitem schimbarea in viata noastra in fiecare secunda, in fiecare minut, in fiecare zi, atunci vom fi obligati sa crestem.

Nu canta cantece insufletite

Cu mintea ta de ieri.

Canta cantece fructuoase

Cu inima ta de azi.
