Couch potatoes take note.
The couch is a comfortable place to relax, once your job is done. You won't find destiny there, although destiny may find you (in an unfortunately starchy and tuberous way). If you want positive things to happen, you need to get off your duff.
"Don't sit down and wait for the opportunities to come,
sit up and make them!" - C.J. Walker
There are only so many days in a week, in a month, in a year, in a life. Our days are dealt out like cards from a deck, and we never know exactly what to expect. Some days you get a pair of twos. Some days you score a royal flush. It's the way that we play the cards that makes the difference. True victories come when you learn how to take that pair of twos and bluff you way into winning the hand.
Carpe Diem, my friends. Seize the day, before it seizes you.
