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
