In this episode of the Warrior Mind Podcast I’m going to discuss the old saying of good advice, “don’t wait till you’re thirsty to dig a well.”
Don’t Wait Till You’re Thirsty to Dig a Well
Who told you to behave recklessly in time when you’re not sick, when you should be taking care of yourself?
Only after being sick do you realize the body is suffering.
Only after dying do you realize you applied your effort wrongly.
Every living being has this problem. When you are healthy, you perceive the world as a happy and enjoyable place. When you fall ill, however, you’re no longer able to eat, to move freely, to do that which pleases you, and to endure all the pain and misery. Sadly, you are too late to realize that this physical body has caused us a lot of suffering. So goes the saying,
When the horse is on the edge of the cliff, it’s too late to draw in the reins.
When the boat is in the middle of the river, it’s too late to patch the leaks.
Enjoy this podcast on don’t wait till you’re thirsty to dig a well.

If we are poor or sick ourselves, of course we should quickly resolve to cultivate. If we see others who are poor, sick, aging and dying, we should also take it as a warning. Life is like a succession of waves. If we can make a vow to be reborn, then we will be prepared in advance. We won’t be in a frantic scramble when it comes time to die. It is just like if a country hasn’t passed through times of disorder, the people will indulge in pleasures, and not know that they should be patriotic and defend their country.
