5.There is an old Spanish saying which states,"Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week."How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow?(16)AWe have to go for them now!
•Tomorrow is not promised.
Nobody likes to talk about death,but everybody is going to die at one point.None of us know the day or the hour.(17)BDon't go to your tomb with unrealized dreams.Make the decision to go after every dream,big or small right now.

There are so many amazing opportunities and people waiting on you.How do you get to them?Simple!Follow your dream.(20)EYou'll never see those doors if you sit around waiting on a dream to happen,instead of actually working to make it happen.
