Just for Today . . .

Recently I started reading, Today Matters by John C. Maxwell.  If you are not familiar with John C. Maxwell you are missing out.  He is a leadership expert, speaker, author, and founder of EQUIP, a nonprofit that has trained more than 5 million leaders in 126 countries worldwide.

I thought I would share with you, a short excerpt from the book.

Everyone has the power to impact the outcome of his life.  The way to do it is to focus on today....Today is the only time you have.  It's too late for yesterday.  And you can't depend on tomorrow.

Just for Today . . .
Just for today . . . I will choose and display the right attitudes.
Just for today . . . I will determine and act on important priorities.
Just for today . . . I will know and follow healthy guidelines.
Just for today . . . I will communicate with and care for my family.
Just for today . . . I will practice and develop good thinking.
Just for today . . . I will make and keep proper commitments.
Just for today . . . I will earn and properly manage finances.
Just for today . . . I will deepen and live out my faith.
Just for today . . . I will initiate and invest in solid relationships.
Just for today . . . I will plan for an model generosity.
Just for today . . . I will embrace and practice good values.
Just for today . . . I will seek and experience improvements.

Just for today . . . I will act on these directions and practice these disciplines, and

Then one day . . . I will see the compounding results of a day lived well.
