No Excuses and Alibis

EXCUSES AND ALIBIS

I thought of all the reasons why

I shouldn't use an alibi,

But it's such an easy thing to do,

I'll keep making them, just like you.

I even made excuses while lying in bed

As other thoughts went through my head.

I thought of all the things I must do,

But decided to stay here, in bed with you.

Make excuses and alibis. Who me? No way!

I'm really going to be a success some day.

My time is coming you just wait and see

Rich and famous is what I'll someday be.

Setting goals, making plans, just a waste of time,

Oh, I almost forgot, I have tennis at nine.

I'll do it tomorrow; I'm too busy today,

I want to have fun, to go out and play.

I have a lifetime to work; I'm young and strong,

Playing a couple of tennis sets won't take long.

But now I realize what is meant by "life's short"

When I suffered heart attack on the court.

There I was looking up at the clear blue sky

Asking that age-old question --- Why?

Kneeling beside me was my tearful wife

Watching the end of my young, strong life.

I never got to do what I wished I could,

If I had another chance, you know I would

Get off my ass, 'cause time really flies,

Make no more excuses, no more alibis.

JULIEN SAMAHA AND MIKE STONE

Julien Samaha is an unusual case, because he was not a martial artist, but felt he needed to make changes in his lifestyle that he attempted for years to do but kept returning to the same negative choices and experiences. He felt a program like ours, where it specifically dealt with creating a new mindset would allow him to consistently apply  positive habits of thinking, expressing, and action to create a better way of living.
