Welcome to The Daily Quote – a podcast designed to kickstart your day in a positive way. I'm your host, Andrew McGivern, for July 20th.

On this day in 1969, humankind did something that had only ever been dreamed of—we landed on the Moon. Today is Moon Day, celebrating that small step for man and giant leap for mankind. Whether you remember watching the grainy footage live or just heard the story a thousand times, one thing is clear: it's still one of the most awe-inspiring moments in human history. A reminder that sometimes, the impossible just needs a countdown.

5,4,3,2,1... We have - another quote of the day.So today’s quote is from Neil Armstrong, the man who took that famous step on the moon.He once said,"I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine."Now, that's not just a poetic sentiment from a guy who’s walked on the Moon—it’s also a practical reminder: your time is limited, so spend it wisely. Armstrong didn’t waste his heartbeats sitting around waiting for inspiration—he trained, he took risks, and he flew straight into the unknown.And sure, you're probably not planning to visit the Moon today—unless you’re one of those billionaires with a rocket in the backyard—but you are choosing how you spend your time. Are you letting it drift by? Or are you using those heartbeats to build something meaningful, even if it’s just a moment of quiet joy?Speaking of joy... did you know it’s also National Ice Cream Day? Yep, you’ve got cosmic permission to treat yourself to something sweet and entirely Earth-based. Because while walking on the Moon is great, walking to the freezer for a scoop of chocolate fudge ripple is also a pretty solid way to honor your heartbeats. All in moderation of course...So today, remember Neil Armstrong’s words—don’t waste a single heartbeat. Chase the big dreams, enjoy the little pleasures, and have an ice cream under the stars tonight. You’ve earned it.Thanks for spending a few of your precious heartbeats with me today. I'm Andrew McGivern, signing off for now... but I’ll be back tomorrow same pod time, same pod station, with another Daily Quote.
