  Speaker 3: A man goes to his doctor and says, doctor, it
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: hurts when I touch my shoulder, when I touch my leg,
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: when I touch my back, when I touch everywhere. What's
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: wrong with me? The doctor examines him briefly and then says, well,
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: I think I figured it out. You have a broken finger.
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: We often think that we have all the time in
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: the world. We say we'll do it later, later when
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: the timing's right, later when we have more energy, or
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: later when things settle down. But how often does later
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: really come. We put things off thinking there's always tomorrow,
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: only to realize one day that later isn't a guarantee.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Today's episode is about the choices we make or don't make,
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: and the moments we allow to slip by thinking there
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: will always be another opportunity. In the end, it's not
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: the things we did that we regret the most, but
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: the things we never did when we had the chance
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: take a moment to reflect on what truly matters before
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: the chance to act slips into later. We'll talk about
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: this in this week's episode of Positively three sixty five,
• 2:06

• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Do you know the answer to this week's trivia question?
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: The question was what year did the Berlin Wall fall,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: marking the end of the Cold War? The answer nineteen
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: eighty nine. The Berlin Wall, which had divided East and
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: West Berlin since nineteen sixty one, symbolized the ideological and
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: physical division between the communist Eastern Bloc and the capitalist
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: Western powers during the Cold War. On November ninth, nineteen
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: eighty nine, after weeks of mounting pressure and protests in
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: East Germany, the government announced that East Berliners could cross
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: the border freely, leading to the walls dismantling dramatically. The
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: fall of the Berlin Wall marked a pivotal moment in history,
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: leading to the reunification of Germany and the eventual end
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: of the Cold War. Now you know, we often live
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: in a rush, caught up in the frenzy of everyday life.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: We're busy planning, chasing after goals, ticking off tasks from
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: a never ending to do list. But how often do
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: we stop and truly reflect on the moments we're in
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: right now, on the things we're putting off, waiting for
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: the perfect time, or telling ourselves we'll get to it later.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: The reality is, life isn't waiting for us to catch up.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: Each second is slipping away, and every later that we
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: push for another day is a chance that we may
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: never get back. There's a subtle truth in all of this.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: We don't always know when will run out of chances,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: and that's when regret creeps in. Think about it, how
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: many times have you found yourself wishing you had done
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: something differently, wishing you had taken action when you had
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: the opportunity instead of waiting for later. It's easy to
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: ignore the now and convince ourselves that tomorrow will bring
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: another opportunity, But what if? What if tomorrow never comes?
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Do not leave anything for later? Later? The coffee gets
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: cold later, you lose interest. Later, the day turns into night. Later,
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: people grow up later, people grow old, later, life goes by. Later,
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: you regret not doing something you had the chance to do.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Later.
