We learn about Musa (as), the du'a that he made when he was in desperate need of help. He asked Allah (swt), for help.
rabWi inWiy lima 'anzalta ilayWa min khayrin faqiyrun
Rabbi innee, limaaa, anzalta, min khairin, faqeer "My Lord, indeed, I am, for whatever Good You would send to me, in my need."

Quran pak

28:24
Musa (as) teaches us that the best way to act is to do more good deeds than bad. You have every chance to do good. So you should grab it and run.

This is the idea behind accelerating your efforts to do good.
Every day, wake up and see the possibilities. Be grateful that Allah has given you the opportunity to serve others today.

148. Each [religious following] has a direction. Race to all that is good. Allah will bring you [for judgment] wherever you are. Allah is the supreme judge of all matters.
Surah Baqarah Ayat 148
LIFE IS TWENTY-FOUR DAYS
Did you ever take a moment to think about where your time goes?
An average person will live for 900 months (that's 75 years, if you do the math), and our childhood occupies 216 of those (684 months). This does not include the time lost to watching TV, sleeping, driving, or working, which could take up 70%. We are left with 205 months.
This number is alarming to me.
This is because it is important to feel urgency to act immediately.

We are not able to know what Allah subhanahu w ta'ala has for us. It is possible to live longer than others - that is an unknown variable. We can live with the belief that our time is coming sooner than we think. Believers would be more responsible than they were before. We would not take this time as a given and believe we have the right to see tomorrow.
According to a Chinese proverb, "The best time to plant trees was 20 years ago. The second-best time is now."
You have a better chance of the seed growing and blossoming into something bigger than you could ever imagine if you act quickly.
RAMADAN: GOOD DEEDS
This effort is seventy times greater in Ramadan.
You have a great month, a blessed one, and a month that contains a night better than a thousand. God has made fasting during this month an obligatory obligation and prayer at the end of the night a voluntary option. When someone does something good during the fast, he will feel like someone who has fulfilled an obligatory obligation in another month. And whoever fulfills an obligatory responsibility in this month will feel like one who has fulfilled seventy obligations in another month. The reward for endurance is paradise. It is a month of sharing and an increase in the believer's provision.
- Mishkat al-Masabih 1965
HADITH ON HASTENING GOOD DEEDS
Abu Huraira reported that Allah's Messenger (), said:
Perform these good deeds quickly (before these): Six things (happen), including the appearance of the Dajjal (the smoke, the beast on the earth, rising of the sun to the west, and general chaos (leading to mass murder and deaths of large numbers of people and others). (Sahih Muslim 2947b)
Although it's difficult to see the end of life, you can avoid making huge mistakes later. You won't remember how many movies were watched or what gossip you heard. It will be hard to remember what your legacy is - what impact did you have on the world.
It will be hard to believe that you have done enough to merit the highest rank of Jannah.
This is what really matters.
Do good, just like Musa did. Also, forgive us all for our need.
"And hasten the forgiveness from your Lord, and a garden so wide that the heavens and the earth are prepared for the righteous."
Surah Imran Ayat 133
