Just for today
Just for today I will try to live through this day only and not tackle my whole life problem at once.I will do something for 12 hours that would appall me if I had to keep it up for a lifetime.
Just for today I will be happy.This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincon said,that"most folks are as happy as they make their minds to be".
Just for today I will adjust myself to what is,and not try to adjust everything to my own desires.I will take my "luck" as it comes.
Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind.I will study.I will learn something useful.I will not be a mental loafer.I will read something that requares effort,thought and concentration.
Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways.I will do somebody a good turn and not get found out:if anybody knows of it,it will not count.I wil do at least two things I don't want to do-just for exercise.I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt.They may be hurt,but today I will not show it.
Just for today I will be agreeable.I will look as well as I can,dress becomingly,talk low,act courteously,criticize not one bit,and try not to improve or ragulate anybody but myself.
Just for today I will have a program,I may not follow it exactly but I will have it.I will save myself from two pests:hurry and indecision.
Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax.During this half hour,sometimes,I will try to get a better perspective of my life.
Just for today I will be unafraid.Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful,and to believe that as I give to the world,so the world will give to me.
