Take Action While There Is Time.
We all have light bulb moments, epiphanies; when we realize that major change is required and dramatic action must be undertaken before its too late.
Unfortunately, for many of us these moments occur when near the end of our lives, as it did with Steve Jobs; when we realize that there was so much we could have done, should have done, but now it’s too late for us to influence the outcomes. Time has gone!
The salutatory lesson here for all of us is to undergo this soul searching, this time of reflection before time and opportunity disappear.
How much more could we achieve in life, what a legacy we could leave behind were we to ponder carefully, and make the big life changing decisions while we are in a position to action them.
The course of history has been changed, and written by people who made these decisions to act, to commit, in time. Lincoln, Mother Theresa and Ghandi all came from backgrounds of relative weakness and insignificance, yet each took stock, and took decisions that changed their generation and generations to come.
The challenge for each one of us today is to be aware of our position in the continuum of time, the opportunities available to us, and act.
Now is the time for each of us to reflect and determine to make the changes to our lifestyle, workload, views and opinions that will influence our generation and the generations ahead of us. Changes that will benefit our family, our nation and humanity.
Now is the time to take action, and be the change.
