Many of us start and finish each day by doing habitual things. We have routines that we follow to begin our days and habits that we do at bedtime. It is easy to do both. So easy that we forget to think about how important it is to be fully aware of our thoughts as we begin and end each day.
Ralph Waldo Emerson says to “write it on your heart that EVERY day is the best day of your life.” Calmly look forward to your new day. Do not regret yesterday for it is gone.
At day’s end, forget the negative things and events that occurred. Think of tomorrow…another new day just for YOU.
“Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.
He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety.
Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in. Forget them as soon as you can, tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely, with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense.
This new day is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on the yesterdays.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
Are you ready to start fresh with your own personal “best day in the year”?
Namaste,
Dave
