I've mentioned before that I have a collection of quotes that I've built over the years that I work from.

This guy was not on my list until just now.

I had not heard of this man until yesterday.

I, for some reason, decided to watch an episode of Penn and Teller's Fool Us and there he was.

This guy has been blind since he was nine. He's an amazing card mechanic, magician and a black belt in karate.

When he was introduced onto the show he said something that I decided to quote him on because it was moving.

"Do you know what I consider to be the worst disability of all? Procrastination and laziness. Give me blindness over that any day of the week."

I've been guilty of it as I'm sure most of us have.

I've talked about procrastination before so I will be brief with this post.

Every time we procrastinate on anything we miss opportunity.

Every time we decide to be lazy instead of doing what we know we can, we are only harming our own future.

Here is something I learned from a great teacher.

What you are experiencing now is the result of what you have thought and acted on in your past.
What you will experience in the future is the result of what you are thinking and acting on now.

Make your future something you can be proud of!

Begin to consciously create it right now.

Would you rather have your ass kicked by a blind man? Lol.

"Do you know what I consider to be the worst disability of all? Procrastination and laziness. Give me blindness over that any day of the week."

Remember, inspiration can come from anywhere.

Thanks for reading.
