Points to Ponder on Monday Morning

 By Walt Perryman

If your life is ever going to go very far,
Your starting point is now, where you are.

The longer we stay in the past,
The shorter our future will last.

If you live your life but never shoot the shot,
There is no doubt if you will make it or not.

Our potential is like a 10 speed bicycle you see,
We may have ten gears but we use about three.

Summary: Starting now, take the shot,
Try not to crash but shift gears a lot.
