Opportunity of a lifetime

You’ve been preparing for this moment your entire life, and now it is here. Right now you are indeed experiencing the opportunity of a lifetime.

Right now is the best possible opportunity that anyone could ever dream of. Everything you have ever learned, all the efforts you’ve made, every disappointment you’ve experienced, and all the accomplishments that you’ve ever achieved have culminated, right now, in this moment that you now are living. This very moment represents an opportunity which is custom made just for you, and one that you are uniquely qualified to fulfill. What will you do with it?

Right now is pure opportunity, because right now is yours to create, to mold, to build into whatever you want. Right now you can be successfully following your dream.

The opportunity of a lifetime is already yours, and it is already here. It is right now. Yet the opportunity is worthless without your active participation. So look closely and see this moment for what it is. Live the opportunity that is yours right now.

— Ralph Marston
