You'll often have the choice between things that areeasy and things that truly make a difference.Complaining is easy but it accomplishes little.Solving the problem takes much more effort thancomplaining, and it also makes a much more positive difference. Sleeping late is easy but what does it get you?By contrast, waking early and going for a brisk walkwill likely make your whole day more positive andproductive, in addition to being great for your health.Those who continue to choose the easy things becomeslaves to their basest desires. Those who consistentlychoose the more rigorous path are rewarded with theability to live life on their own terms. Easy is enticing.Effort is empowering. Do you want to squander yourprecious time being enticed and coddled, or will youuse that time to build a life of achievement?The choice is always yours, and the results are

always of your making.

We are born into the WorldLike a blank canvasAnd every person that crosses our pathTakes up the brushAnd makes their markUpon our surfaceSo it is that we developBut we must realize there comes a dayThat we must take up the brushAnd finish the workFor only we can determineIf we are to beJust another paintingOr a MasterpieceJavan

There is enormous power in this moment. The more fully you experience what is here right now, the more that power is available to you. Are you angry or bitter, disappointed or resentful about what has happened in the past? Then much of the power of this moment will be out of your reach. Are you anxious and worried about something that may or may not happen in the future? Then you will miss out on the opportunity to create real and lasting value from this powerful moment you are in. Imagine that everything you are, everything you know, everything you care about, is focused into this very moment. And feel the enormous power of what you can, right here and now, do with it all. Rise above the murky fog of what could have been and what someday might or might not come to pass. Focus the whole of your being on what is, and on the overflowing abundant opportunities this moment presents to you. There is great and wonderful power in this very moment, in who you are, in where you are right now. See it, be it, and let yourself live it fully. Ralph Marston
