Live today as if there is no tomorrow. Speaking of one hell of an exaggeration! What good may come out of all-out excess? Yes, we should live as fully as we can while we are still alive. But we shouldn't stop worrying about what's to come. There are small sacrifices to be made in order to live a life well lived, because like itself, success and happiness also do not come without risk. Balance is needed in order to fulfill ourselves as much as you can. Regardless of our true purposes, we must mind our own business. It may be taking care of our loved ones, achieving greatness or expertise, or even servitude dedicated to the glory of something or someone else. Taking a leap of faith far too wide is less likely to yield desired results. Yes, it is a gamble, we might end up exactly where we wanted to be or even better than that, but possible shortcomings should not be ignored. We have to look at the big picture.
