From Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations

Book 2.4

Think of your many years of procrastination;…It is time now…to understand that your time has a limit set to it. Use it, then, to advance your enlightenment; or it will be gone and never in your power again.

Well, testify, my brother. This (somewhat expurgated) quote demonstrates one of the main reasons I began this blog-to help me focus on my studies.

And many times I’ve wondered how much I would know if I’d used all the time I’ve spent procrastinating for obtaining knowledge. The thought depresses me, though, so I try to focus on the time in front of me that I still have control over.
