Not just living in the now, but giving the now your best.
I know most people have the tendency to want to wait until things start to fall into place before they decide to really invest in things. Like waiting until you buy that apartment or house before trying to make it look nice and the way you want. Or until things fall into place with something at work before you give your best to a project.
Of course, you want to conserve your energy and you carefully pick the things that require your best.
But then some people try to save all of their energy and can't decide what they should focus on. Or some people try to give their best to everything at the same time and don't actually get anything accomplished.
I'm not saying giving your best to every little thing that you do every single day. That's impossible. I'm just saying, why wait to make the best of what you have now?
You never know, it could all be gone tomorrow.
So why not do what you can to the best of your ability? Instead of waiting around for the day you can finally give something your all and make it the best. You don't want to leave any regrets. At least, I know I don't.

Colossians 3:23-24
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
