About This Quote

Although we all love to hold our breath and wait for the right moment to strike, the truth is that there is always something you can do to make your life better. Some people wait for a sign or some signpost to guide them. Others see opportunity and take it without waiting for permission. Therein lies the difference between those who succeed and those who fail. Opportunity waits on no one, but those who recognize it and seize it have a better chance of making their lives better.
