Every new day presents itself as either a challenge, an opportunity or a mix of both depending on an individual’s perspective. At its extremes a new day can either be seen as a blessing or a curse.
There is good and bad in every day. The outcome is what we choose to embrace and accentuate.
We decide what we will take from this day as much as we decide what we will give to this day. No matter what, we are here and the day is here.
All that we can be absolutely certain of it that we have this moment, this part of this day and every part of every minute is precious.
When it comes to time, there are no promises other than the promise of this very moment that we are in. That makes the next breath, the next thought, the next action, the next word so very important.
There is so much around us over which we have no control. There is so much within us over which we have ultimate control.
We are responsible for our own happiness. Conversely, we are responsible for our own misery.
It comes down to what we do with what we have and who we are and the only way to achieve that is to get to know ourselves, our strengths and our weaknesses.
Effort should be made every day to be a better version of the person we were yesterday. It’s vital first that we make a friend of the person we are. Too much time can be wasted being our own worst enemy.
Far better to make the most of every minute and the most of who we are meant to be.
