Next year you will be older than you are now. You will have one year less in wliieh to accomplish the things you started out to accomplish. If there were things that appeared to you to serve as good excuses for not making a move to bring nearer those things you started out to do—for not doing something to realize your ambitions—you may as well face the cold, incontrovertible fact that there never will- come a year or any ])art of a year when something will not appear that may serve as an excuse for marking time and waiting. But burn this into your memory! Time never marks time in that way—it never waits. It moves on inexorably and checks otf the days al- lotted to you to make good in your chosen occupation. Soyou can readily see,if you were one of those who let war conditions serve as an excuse for standing still, and who then let reconstruction conditions and high prices serve as another excuse and who stand, even now, with both ears o|»en to catch the faintest pessi- mistic murmur that may serve as yet another excuse, you will be rudely awakened some day, to a realization of the fact that you are no longer a young man—tliitt. you are no longer a middle-aged man—that for you the prime of life has passed—that those years of your life that should have been spent in building up a business of sufficient size to take care of your declin- ing years have been spent in marking time—in wait- ing for conditions in which every element, every factor is in your favor. In other words, in wait- ing for something that never has existed and never can exist. Conditions right now are as favorable for the build- ing of greenhouses as they are like
