Karen always said that she didn't like her house at all. One day I asked why she didn't look for another house. Karen answered, “I will look for another one when I come back from vacation.”
Sam hated his job. However, he loved taking photos, and was taking a two-year course to make him better at it. Every day he said his work was boring. I asked him why he didn't give up his job and start a business of taking photos. His reply was, “When I finish my course, I will start a business."
Harry worked for a company that allowed him to retire early, but he had to get less money after he retired. Now Harry became very weak and found it difficult to deal with his work. I was worried about his health because too much work was bad for him. "Why don't you retire, Harry? Do something that you want to do, "I said."If I were older, I would get my full pension. When the next summer comes, maybe I will, "Harry replied.
There is an old saying that says:"If and When were planted, and Nothing grew."A year later, Karen is still living in the houses he hates. Sam is still busy with his boring job and hasn't finished his course. Harry is still working and his health is even worse. These people had a lot of stress in their lives and couldn't change the situations by thinking "if or when".
Life is too short for "ifs and whens". The next time you find yourself thinking "if or when", remember the saying: "If and When were planted, and Nothing grew."
