Everything in life has a starting point. For young people, many aspects of life are still at momentous beginning stages. The kind of start they are getting, how firm their commitments are to excellence, how they handle responsibility, and what kind of friendships they build
makes such a huge impact on their lives. Many outcomes in life begin with us and what we do with our opportunities. The direction that society takes on issues like poverty, racial harmony or the use of drugs depends on our choices. Our call to action should be READY, SET, GO!

•     A good beginning generally leads to a better ending. Some of us act like it’s not that important to get a good start on things. We may not even get a good start each day, just hoping that great things will just happen. Getting a good start means wanting to do your best, eating good food, and having a good attitude. In our education, health or friendships, we need to decide to do a good job…Get READY.

•     Some of us choose to be bored or angry instead of being “constructive.” Many times, life seems to be going nowhere. We get “bored” or turn to complaining rather than push things into high gear. Wrong actions create “conflicts” and troubled relationships.
We need to get better control of our emotions. Teasing or bullying need to be rejected. Nothing good will happen until we get committed to taking positive action.

•            Dangers like drug use need proactive voices to reduce the problem. The safety and health of many children are threatened by the use of alcohol, cigarettes and other gateway drugs. Some young people will die or suffer life-long injuries from casual moments that turn into tragic decisions. We need to Get SET.

     •     A good start must be followed by consistent positive action. Once we decide on
turning our lives in more positive directions, only strong commitments and consistent decisions will get the job done. Not being careful, or open to good advice, is a danger that we must all be watching closely. Every day is a chance to build on our start, to follow- through. We can work with friends and family to make the most of every day.

•            Protecting people from harm is good friendship! Only by supporting others, and pushing for positive change, will most situations get better. We can start movements and team projects that will literally change the world. Each of us possesses talents and knowledge that can make a difference in how good life is turning out. But good things won’t happen unless you get moving forward…GO!

It is not easy to build a great life. It takes smart choices, willpower to keep going, and good friends to support you everyday. Many moments will come down to the choices you make.
The way to reduce childhood obesity, drug use or student conflicts is by welcoming change and embracing a better way. We can make so many positive contributions if we will just get going. Get the most from today. Get READY, SET, GO!
