Recently, I always hear my friends complain:
If I had learned to dance well, I might have been a full-time dancer now.
If I had read more professional books and went out for internships in college, I would not have worked overtime every day and would not be easily criticized.
If I had started reading more ten years ago, I might have become a famous scholar by now.
Whenever I hear similar words, I always ask helplessly: since I knew I had taken a detour, why not use the following days to make up for the shortcomings of the past as much as possible, but sighed while babbling on this side?
Such a question, I do not know how many people, the answer is always the same, a sentence: unfortunately, it is too late.
Is it really too late for your life?

A few days ago, a reader chatted with me and put down a sentence as soon as he came up: you say, there is still some time before the civil service examination, can I start preparing tomorrow in time?
My words are blocked. After thinking for a long time, I replied: I don't know if it's too late, but I know that if you don't try and act, it will be too late.
It was only when I was about to graduate from my senior year that I happened to see an author's article and felt very encouraged before I began to write. During this period, many people said to me: how old are you and what are you messing about? it's too late. Look at those great writers, which one didn't insist on writing from an early age?
However, at such an age when everyone thought it was too late, I relied on my own persistence and wrote some achievements. I never asked anyone if it was too late. I knew that if I wanted to do it, I would take action.
As the saying goes, the best time to plant a tree was ten years ago, followed by now.
If you planted a tree ten years ago, it may be pavilion and shady by now. If not, we can only act immediately and use today's diligence to make up for the shortcomings of the past. Don't wait ten years later to face the desolation and blame the years for being ruthless.

Because of writing reasons, but also know a lot of great predecessors.
Most of them do not write full-time, and some wait until their thirties to pick up their pens; some wait until their children have grown up before they quietly shut up in the room and hit the keyboard; some are even in their sixties and are still on various platforms, writing their own words with a group of post-90s generation.
Many of them do not think that they want to do what they like, and age is a hindrance. It was too late for these three words, and they never appeared in their life dictionary.
Haruki Murakami, a famous writer, began to write novels at the age of 29. At that time, some people said that you were 29 years old, and it was too late to start writing at such an age.
However, he knows that as long as he likes, no matter what age of life, he can set sail.
In this way, he mentioned the pen for thirty years, and finally became a well-known writer.
And those who are always under the guise of being too late eventually lose not to life, but to themselves. Because they never set out.

When you were 20 years old, you saw your roommate playing the guitar, and you wanted to learn it, but you felt that it was too late to study. When you were 25 years old, you wanted to learn to swim, and you felt that it was too old to do so, so you chose to give up. When you were 30 years old, you saw that your colleagues could speak fluent English, so you thought from the bottom of your heart to go home and sign up for an online course, but at the moment of enrollment, you still chose to back down and tell yourself it was too late.
In real life, we have a lot of things we want to do, but we are always scared by the words "too late". However, if we really pull off the cover of too late, you will find that if we have not changed our attitude, it will be very difficult for us to spend the rest of our time on meaningful things.
You don't learn guitar, but you don't spend time on your studies, you stay in your dorm and play games on the Internet; you don't learn swimming, but you don't spend time with your family, you do nothing all day; you don't learn English. but instead of trying to improve other workplace skills after work, you waste your time pursuing dramas and pastimes.
You say it's too late, but you never wonder if it's really too late.
Don't let it be too late as an excuse to avoid life. A lot of things, as long as you want to start, it's never too late.
Now, let's do it.
