What are you waiting for??? "Someday Investors"

As GaryV has said, the best motivation in 3 words is: "You're gonna die"

That's not a new concept. "Memento Mori" is an old Latin phrase meaning "Remember that you will die"

Think about if you died... would you be happy with the things you've done? What are the things that you've left undone or never did? 

It doesn't matter how healthy or young you are, any day could be your last. So go out and do the things you've put off for "someday"... Someday is just another word for never. Get off the sidelines. START INVESTING. Take that trip. Climb that mountain. Start that business. Experience life! 

Change your "someday" list to an actual checklist that you WILL do... someday may never come.

Here's a #TBT to when I should have died four years ago.  I was 28 and in fantastic shape, and could have easily died. I crashed going 65mph straight into a guard rail when I dosed off for just a second driving one night...

Is that the car you crashed in? Glad you're still around to tell the tale brotha!

It is. Even the tow truck driver asked to take photos because he couldn't believe I just opened the door and walked out away fine.
