A great day

Today is a great day to be alive. The world is filled with positive possibilities, and those possibilities grow more numerous with each passing moment.

Sure, there are challenges and disappointments and frustrations. And within those challenges, within those disappointments, are some of the greatest possibilities.

Today is a great day to be alive because today you can make things happen. You can set a goal, chart a course, take stock of your situation and use it to create new value.

Pay no attention to those who claim to know how things will be. Your future is yours to determine, and this is the day to make it great.

You don’t need anyone’s permission to live with joy and fulfillment. You don’t need to wait for certain circumstances to line up in a specific way.

For today is a great day to be alive, to be productive, to be effective and to fulfill your best possibilities. And now is the moment to enthusiastically get busy making it all happen.

— Ralph Marston
