Staying Proactive Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Staying proactive.
Prepared and ready on a daily basis.
Requires desire, discipline and initiative.
Some await until it is too late.
For opportunities to come their way.
To then say,
They wish for them more time to prepare...
To take advantage of the benefits presented.
But no one told them,
About the requirements they needed to have.
That would prove they were qualified.

Staying proactive.
On a daily basis.
Keeps one always qualified.
To know and identify opportunities.
Either to create and make for themselves.
And which skill to apply,
That is undeniably reliable.

Staying aware and prepared,
Eliminates excuses to make.
That may have been acceptable yesterday.
But these are not those days,
Anyone should find okay to live.
When today it takes remaining,
Ready and prepared for tomorrow.
And what the future may bring to offer.
