Today's Empowering Question

"What beauty can I notice today,
something I never noticed before?"
----------------------------------
Today's Fast Session
----------------------------------
You hear other people say it and
you've probably said it 1,000 times or more. "Life's too short."
What better reason to take each and
EVERY day and live it out loud. Now, I hear this sentiment once in a
while but rarely is it put in such a way where the message doesn't
sound like a commercial for Mountain Dew.
What a gift life is. Another day. Wow.
Think about it. You are the sum
total of ALL your days up until now. Every day has gone into
creating you. When you're 70, 80, 90 what a horrible shame it
would be if you were to look back and think, "I didn't do so many
things I wanted to do. I was mad or scared half the time."
Use today to get where you want to
go.
Maybe you're behind your
pre-determined schedule. Perhaps you wanted to do more by now
than you have.
That's not a problem.
You've got today. How lucky
you are...
Don't even think about putting it
off 'til tomorrow. Even if there's no PLACE to go or big goal
you can work on today, you can do something else.
Look around. Things may be
bustling, pushing, moving at cyber speed. But you can be alone in
your thoughts and see whatever you want. That mountain is
there just for you.
"Awesome." Your mother's
voice. Beautiful. You may never hear it again. Your
kids. Precious. Your friends. They love you.
Enjoy it.
Is there crap? Huge difficult
challenges? Sure, but you can learn from it. That's good,
right? Just notice the good stuff right now. What could
possibly make today great? A bunch of stuff. And don't
think that playing or lounging is the only way to celebrate YOUR
day. What can you do?
--Do your best at work - Make today
your crowning achievement.
--Recognize someone else - Put a smile on some faces.
--Find out about someone else - Someone on your "team." Be genuine.
--Take some time off if you need to - There might be some roses that
need smelling.
--Call someone you haven't talked to in a while. Or pay 'em a visit.
--Meditate - With no goal in mind. Just notice your thoughts.
--Look in the mirror - You're a pretty cool person. Recognize
it. It's true.
--Read a chapter - learning is your ticket to where ever you want to
go.
--Look at your victory log - And do something today to add to it.
--Laugh - at yourself, others, cartoons, TV shows, commercials. Just
laugh.
And I'm sure that you can think of
more stuff. The important point is...
Today IS a beautiful day.
But if your perspective is screwed
up, you won't see it. Review the list above and add to it if
you like. Review it regularly and your view will change.
Guaranteed.
Don't make feeling good so hard.
It's not. You don't have to be at Disney World to have a
good day.
Today is God's gift to you.
Appreciate the gift no matter what it is that you find yourself
involved in. It was given in love.
Accept it with love.
