A check in your wallet does you very little good. It represents opportunity, sure, but not action.<\/p>\n

Most of us are carrying around a check, an opportunity to make an impact, to do the work we’re capable of, to ship the art that would make a difference.<\/p>\n

No, the world isn’t fair, and most people don’t get all the chances they deserve. There are barriers due to income, to race, to social standing and to education, and they are inexcusable and must fall. But the check remains, now more than ever. The opportunity to step up and to fail (and then to fail again, and to fail again) and to continue failing until we succeed is greater now than it has ever been.<\/p>\n

As Martin Luther King Junior spoke about a half a lifetime ago,<\/p>\n

“We are now faced with the fact, my friends, that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there is such a thing as being too late. Procrastination is still the thief of time. Life often leaves us standing bare, naked, and dejected with a lost opportunity. The tide in the affairs of men does not remain at flood — it ebbs. We may cry out desperately for time to pause in her passage, but time is adamant to every plea and rushes on. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words, “Too late.”<\/p>\n

The opportunities to start and try new directions or ventures are now Immense..Grab yourself (and your people) by the collar, yank yourself off of your comfortable, well-worn path and create something distinctive, meaningful, and emotional.<\/p>\n

Good luck..<\/p>\n
