“You got the makings of greatness in you, but you got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls! And when the time comes you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show what you’re made of… well, I hope I’m there, catching some of the light coming off you that day.” – John Silver, The Treasure Planet

Every single moment we are alive is a moment to show what we are made off.

Today is that day. Today is the day where you can truly show what you are made of!

It’s not tomorrow, and it wasn’t yesterday, and sure, today may not bring the grandest of opportunities, but that is exactly why today is the day you really can show what you can do.

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” -Will Durant

Today you have a once in a lifetime opportunity, because this day will never come again.

Either you make it a day worthy of being lived or you don’t, but what you do with it depends on your choice.

Of course you could sit on the couch again.

Of course you could eat another chocolate bar and drink another beer.

And of course you could binge-watch another series if you really wanted to.

But none of these things will get you any closer to what you want.

They will not bring you excellence.

They will not bring you your goals.

And nothing will change.

If you really want to make a change you have to start taking control of your course!

You have to start making the moments in your life count because you only have a limited amount left!

Sooner or later, it will be too late.

“If you live each day as it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” -Steve Jobs

Today is the day you have to show what you are made of.

Today is the day where everything changes.

Today is the perfect day to make your life count!

Show yourself that you are destined for more and that you can have anything you want to have.

Do what you need to do today and do not wait for tomorrow.

Stop waiting for the signs or the moments that are so easy to see that everyone sees them and make every moment an opportunity to shine.

If you live today as if it were your last day, if you charter your own course right now, and if you begin on the habits that make you excellent, you will show the world what you can really do!

But you have to start now!
