If we had no faults, we should not take pleasure in noting those of others.

Today’s opportunities

How many of today’s opportunities will you recognize? How many of them will you be willing to make use of?

Every problem you come across is an opportunity to create value. Each passing moment comes with an opportunity to do useful work, to learn, to make a positive difference in some way.

Every frustration gives you the opportunity to strengthen your patience. Every awkward situation provides an opportunity to add to your confidence.

Every challenge represents an opportunity to hone your skills. Every setback delivers the opportunity to become more determined and persistent.

Every person you encounter presents you with an opportunity for kindness. Every disagreement can serve as an opportunity for deeper understanding.

Today is filled with opportunities if you will simply open yourself to them. Each one can add new value to your world when you live with courage, with purpose, with love.

— Ralph Marston
