Audacity to live

You have one opportunity to live this day. Kick hesitation, doubt, excuses to the curb and give your time the respect and effort it deserves.

Do what you know is best, and prove to life how much you appreciate it. Forget about making a good impression and commit yourself to making a great life for everyone.

There is so much abundance, so much energy, so many resources, ideas, opportunities and good, positive people. Remind yourself of the possibilities, of how great it is to love all you love, and then put that love into action.

Don’t cheat yourself by expecting to get something for nothing. Instead, raise your expectations ten times higher than they already are, and then give yourself to life in even greater proportion.

The best things you can ever experience come from pushing new richness into existence. You are uniquely equipped to do that, to make a difference that will be felt by the people around you, so grab that opportunity and go with it, now.

Have the audacity to live every moment with goodness, integrity and purpose. And know once again how great it is to be alive.

— Ralph Marston
