Life is short - begin every day with a smile!
Here’s an interesting (and fun) hypothetical for you to consider…
You apply for a very dangerous and difficult job that pays an enormous amount of money for the relatively short time you’ll have to spend working on it.
The job will take 30 days to complete and you’ll receive your pay in cash when the job is finished at the end of day 30.

Every now and then I’ll hear someone say something like this:
