      Nov 17 2011: I'm interested in this reply for two reasons Robert.

      Firstly, Tomorrow or Manana, for many people is an excuse to put things off, why is it a motivator for you?

      Secondly, we hear about the importance of living in the Now. Focusing our attention on the past or the future removes us away from the reality of the present moment, and the vitality of living, again why is the the future a motivator for you?
