About this Quote

This quote by Charles Lindbergh talks to the idea that we typically discover ourselves stuck in the past, dreaming of what could have been, while likewise dreaming of what could be in the future. It recommends that we are typically unable to move forward and make progress in our lives because we are too concentrated on the past and the future. We are so busy imagining what might have been and what might be that we forget to reside in today. We are so concentrated on the impossible future conquests that we forget to do something about it and make progress in today. This quote motivates us to focus on the present and do something about it in order to make development and achieve our objectives. It advises us that if we wish to make progress, we need to focus on today and act in order to make our dreams a truth.
