Carry good fortune forward

Remind yourself how fortunate you are, having all you have, able to do all you can do. Think of the steps you can take to make full use of that good fortune.

Your life is far from perfect, and the world around you certainly has its flaws. Yet there are plenty of positive possibilities to explore, all sorts of opportunities available.

Fill yourself with the energy of gratitude. Then focus that energy on making improvements in your own life and the lives of those around you.

Not only do you have the good fortune of being capable, aware, and resourceful. You’re also positioned to create positive outcomes.

This moment is the culmination of everything you’ve experienced, all you’ve done. Honor that bountiful legacy by applying it fully toward good purpose.

You’ve successfully navigated through all life’s ups and downs to reach this point. Now is your chance to step up and continue carrying that good fortune forward.

— Ralph Marston
