Dont be upset from the results you didn’t get from the work you didn’t do. The slacker won't find success and neither will you. May you be blessed with an exhilarating sense of urgency to take the steps needed to get the results you want. God bless and get going! 

An Israeli man named Itzik was returning home from a fishing trip at the Sea of Galilee. He was flying down the highway, going way too fast. He felt secure amongst a pack of cars, all traveling at the same speed.

However, it wasn't long before he saw flashing lights in his review mirror and pulled over. The officer handed him the citation, received his signature, and was about to walk away when Itzik stopped him. "Officer, I know I was speeding," he started, "but I don't think it's fair. There were plenty of other cars around me going just as fast, so why did I get the ticket?"

The officer tilted his head and gestured at the fishing gear stowed on the passenger seat. "I see you like fishing," he said. "Ummm, yes I do... so?" Itzik replied, confused. The officer grinned as he turned to leave. "Ever catch ALL the fish?"

The alarm clock buzzes. You crack an eye open and see the light blinking at you. 5:45am. After a few moments, your groggy mind remembers why you set your alarm in the first place. You groan, and after another minute, roll out of bed. You take a quick peek out the window. Still dark out. But it won’t be for long. The sunrise awaits you.
