Yesterday was Day 9 of the Papa’s Walk Challenge!

It was rainy and overcast and I had a ton of errands to run.  On a trip to the post office (located in a strip mall), there was a break in the weather as I drove into the parking lot.  I decided it was now or never – so I walked the perimeter of the HUGE parking lot before getting in line at the post office.

I recalled that whenever something needed to get done Papa would say, “What are we waiting around for? Let’s go!” He taught me that the best time to take action to accomplish a goal is always now. Strike while the iron is hot. Delay in implementation can cause you to miss opportunities.

I’m glad I took that parking lot walk because the rain started again as soon as I mailed my packages. 🙂
