| Beginning Today
Beginning today
I will no longer worry
about yesterday.
It is in the past and the past will never change.
Only I can change by choosing to do so.
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 capable person looking back at me is
someone I enjoy spending
time with and someone
I
would like to get to know better.
Beginning 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-improvement.
Beginning today
I will take life one day
at a time, one
step at a time. Discouragement
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
my heart.
I will welcome new experiences.
I will meet new people.
I will not expect perfection from myself
nor anyone else: perfection does not exist 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 that 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.
Beginning today.
And every day.
