Meaning
This can be taken to mean that the present moment is not a luxury, but the whole of what is available. The warning is to treat time as finite and immediate, because once it passes, there is no backup. It lands in a situation where someone is postponing an important choice, and needs to hear that delay can waste the only chance at hand.
