I chanced upon a profoundly-striking advice today. (From the internet, no less.)

This is advice that comes from a man who once stood upon the threshold of possibility that we all stand upon today. That advice:

Occasionem Cognosce: “Recognize your opportunity!”

Thus, today begins our own time of opportunity; seize it!

This piece of advice also came from the same man who said: “Two things are always new – youth and the quest for learning”. “Occasionem Cognosce” has also been a motto of the Lowell family, and is proudly displayed on the arms of Lowell House.
