Hilary Davies Shelby Feb 22, 2008:
Please could you provide more context?
DC Josephs Feb 22, 2008:
CMJ & Ken are right: context is king around here: type of document, audience, intention - whatever you can give.
Ken Cox Feb 22, 2008:
To answer your second question, nobody can say whether it is a good fit without knowing what it is supposed to fit to.
CMJ_Trans (X) Feb 22, 2008:
how on earth can we say without more context? It is a plausible solution

It is time to improve/it is time for improvment

although I like your version too, only it should be:
"it is time to expand your horizon" - you forgot the "d" at the end of "expand" I think

Peer comment(s):
neutral writeaway : also impossible to give a meaningful peer comment with such a lack of context.
