Opportunity for action

Now is your opportunity to do what must be done. Make good and profitable use of that opportunity.

The opportunity decreases every moment it is not utilized. Eventually it is gone for good.

Before that happens, do something worthwhile with the opportunity for action. Transform the best of what can be into the reality of what is.

You have the means and the ability right now to solve a problem, to attain a goal. You can improve or sustain life in a specific, meaningful way.

Don’t just sit there, don’t just let the moment pass. Get up and get something good done.

Every opportunity for action is destined to become either an achievement or a regret. Avoid the regret and claim the value by putting forth whatever effort is called for in the moment.

— Ralph Marston
