Right Now
We think very little of time present; we anticipate the future, as being too slow, and with a view to hasten it onward, we recall the past to say it as too swiftly gone. We are so thoughtless, that we thus wander through the hours which are not here, regardless only of the moment that is actually our own. - Blaise Pascal
Plan for the future; learn from the past; live today accordingly.

Last Day
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something. - Steve Jobs
Try to retain as much control as you can over being able to do each day what you have planned.

Experience Value
Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely. - Auguste Rodin
Its kind of like taking aspirin for a headache. You never know how bad it would have been without it.
p.s. If you are unfamiliar with Rodin then follow the link above. He is well worth learning about. The book "Naked Came I" is a good read; a biographical novel of his life.
