The famed Irish Poet, Brendan Behan reportedly said to a nun tending him on his deathbed, “Ah, bless you, Sister, may all your sons be bishops.”

If you engage your imagination, you can craft some famous last words for some famous people living or dead. For example:

Jackie Gleason – “And away we go.”

Julian Assange – “I’m leaking.”

Calvin Klein – “I’m going out of style.”

Your last words, no matter how poignant or memorable, will pale in comparison to your deeds.

What will you be remembered for? If it’s only for a handful of sayings, they only scratch the surface of who you really are.

My sense is you’d rather be remembered for what you did, not what you didn’t do or say.

We all make mistakes in life, many about which we hold regret. The one thing we don’t do becomes our undoing for however many days we have left.

This one thing is something I wrote about a number of years ago. It’s truly what you’ll be remembered for if you muster the courage to do it. Not only that, it will free you from the burden of carrying a heavy weight until you breathe your last words. It’s called:

“The Opportunity”

Almost everyone longs for The Opportunity but this chance doesn’t present itself to most.

The Opportunity is presented to only a few and most of them do not act on it.

The small percentages of people who do act on The Opportunity have peace and contentment for the balance of their days.

The unsettling news is that the people who never had The Opportunity presented to them, and the ones who did and passed it up, share something in common.

They either regret for the rest of their life that they never got The Opportunity, or they forever rue not acting on it.

Maybe you’re one of the fortunate ones who have The Opportunity right now.

What are you going to do with The Opportunity if you’re lucky enough to be one of the chosen?

It takes courage to act on The Opportunity.

Will it be peace and contentment or lifelong angst? It’s your decision.

What could The Opportunity be that eludes most, is presented to few, and is acted on by fewer?

The Opportunity to make it right.

All the best,

John
