Beginning today, I will no longer worry about tomorrow.
Tomorrow will always be there, waiting for me to make the most of it.
But I cannot make the most of tomorrow, without first making the most of today.

Beginning today, I will look in the mirror and I will
see a person worthy of my respect and admiration.
This capabale person looking back at me is someone
I enjoy spending time with and someone I would like
to get to know better.

Beggining today, I will cherish each moment of my life.
I value this gift bestowed upon me in this world and
I will unselfishly share this gift with others.
I will use this gift to enhance the lives of others.

Beginning today, I will take a moment
to step off the beaten path and to revel
in the mysteries I encounter.
I will face challenges with courage and determination.
I will overcome what barriers there may be
which hinder my quest for growth and self-improvment

Beginning today, I will take life
one day at a time, one step at a time.
Dicouragement will not be allowed
to taint my positive self-image,
my desire to succeed or my capacity to love.

Beginning today, I walk with renewed faith in human kindness.
Regardless of what has gone before,
I believe there is hope for a brighter and better future.

Beginning today, I will open my mind and heart.
I will welcome new experiences, I will meet new people
I will not expect perfection from myself nor anyone else;
perfection does not exsist in an imperfect world.
But, I will applaud the attempt to overcome human foibles.

Beginning today, I am responsible for my own happiness
and I will do things tha make me happy....
admire the beautiful wonders of nature,
listen to my favorite music
pet a kitten or a puppy
soak in a bubble bath
Pleasure can be found in the most simple of gestures

Beginning today I will learn something new;
I will try something different;
I will savor all the various flavors life has to offer.
I will change what I can and the rest I will let go.
I will strive to become the best me I can possibly be.

Beginng today

Excellent Plan for Living!!

I like this part:
"I value this gift bestowed upon me in this world and
I will unselfishly share this gift with others.
I will use this gift to enhance the lives of others."

You just never know how your smile, or a gesture of approval, or a hug, or simple consideration will positively affect another (hurting) soul.....
