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.
