We need to contemplate on our precious human life, what is our motivation, and we must wish to be liberated from samsara. Then, from there, the most important is to achieve Buddhahood. We need strong will power to achieve this great goal. To make our life useful, we should not wait. We must be useful, we must use our daily life to be useful, not to harm others, and to create harmony. To be a good person, we must be mindful of what we do, for what we do is action, and this creates the imprint and results. This seed of imprint will ripen as karma ripens. We have collected so much bad karma from many lifetimes. Do not wait any longer.
