（江西省重点中学盟校2015届高三第一次十校联考）There is an old Spanish Proverb which states, ―Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week‖. 36 I’d say, too many. Our dreams should not, and cannot wait. We have to go for them now! Here’s why. 1. 37
Nobody likes to talk about death, but the reality is – everybody is going to die at one point. None of us know the day, or the hour. Therefore, today is all we have. Don’t go to your grave with unfulfilled dreams. Make the decision to go after every dream, big or small right now. 2. The world is waiting on your gift
I know this may be hard to believe, but the world is waiting on YOU! Yes, YOU! 38 Sure, other people may be able to sing. But they’ll never be able to sing exactly like you. Sure other people can write, but they’ll never be able to write from the same perspective in which you write. Don’t deprive the world of your gift. It’s the oxygen that we need to survive. Thus, it is your responsibility to figure out exactly what your gift is, and use to better your life and the lives of those around you. 3. 39
You can dream about writing the great American play that you want, but it’s never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper. You can dream about finding a cure for cancer, but it will never happen unless you actually go to school to become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure. 40 They require you to get your head out of the clouds, and actually do the work to make them happen. Get to it!

D. How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow?
