Transcript
- 0:00Podcasthero.com. Welcome to The Daily Quote, the
- 0:05podcast designed to kick start your day in a positive way.
- 0:09I'm your host, Andrew Mcgibbon for December 30th, today's
- 0:12festival of enormous changes. At the last minute, a perfectly
- 0:17timed celebration for December 30th.
- 0:19This quirky holiday acknowledges something true.
- 0:23Even at the 11th hour, change is possible.
- 0:27You've got two days left in 2025.
- 0:30That might not seem like much, but it's enough.
- 0:34Enough to start something, Enough to fix something.
- 0:38Enough to change something. The festival reminds us that
- 0:41transformation doesn't require months of preparation.
- 0:45Sometimes enormous changes happen in the final moments when
- 0:49we finally stop overthinking and just act.
- 0:53And that brings us to today's quote from Victorian novelist
- 0:56Dinah Maria Crack, who once wrote in her novel A Life for a
- 1:01Life. It's never too late to Be what
- 1:06you might have been. Craig's words challenge our
- 1:09excuses. We tell ourselves it's too late,
- 1:14I'm too old, I've missed my chance.
- 1:17The year's already over, but Crate pushes back.
- 1:21It's never too late. Not at 50, not at 70, not on
- 1:27December 30th. What you might have been is
- 1:31still available to you right now.
- 1:33Today, the festival of enormous changes at the last minute
- 1:37celebrates this truth. Change doesn't need perfect
- 1:40timing or ideal circumstances. It needs decision.
- 1:45It needs action. Even last minute action counts.
- 1:49Think about what you might have been this year.
- 1:52Maybe you meant to be healthier, kinder, braver, or more
- 1:55creative. You're not out of time.
- 1:58You've got today and tomorrow. That's enough for enormous
- 2:02changes. Today.
- 2:03Make one enormous last minute change.
- 2:06Not for January. For now, call someone you've
- 2:11been avoiding. Start that project you wanted to
- 2:14start at the beginning of the year.
- 2:18Apologize, forgive, create, move.
- 2:24Take action. Don't wait for the perfect
- 2:27moment in 2026. Craig's wisdom applies right
- 2:31now. It's never too late, not even on
- 2:35December 30th. Make your enormous change.
- 2:39You've got time. Barely.
- 2:43But enough. Enough to do something that's
- 2:47going to do it for today. I'm Andrew McGivern, signing off
- 2:49for now, but I'll be back tomorrow.
- 2:54Same pod time, same pod station with another daily quote.
