Choices! What will it be? #64
Dear TODAY being July 1st, please be good.
Another 24 hours is upon us in the name of Today. A new day given to us as a gift. For me, Today means a new month, the second quarter of the year, another day to wake up and feel gratitude for life. Another day to do the things that will bring me closer to my goals and dreams.
Another day to stay consistent no matter how painful it is, to show up even if I'm not seeing results yet and to remind myself of the kind of life I want for myself and the price I need to pay to get it.
But for other people, Today might mean a doctor's appointment, a school day, another day to go to a job they may and may not like, another day to run a business, get married, get a surgery, prepare for a championship, etc.
Today |

I've always seen every day as a new day and Today is not short of that new day. Today is actually fast and I didn't get to do a lot today even though it was important tasks. 6 months into the year already and Today should not feel any different but considering we're halfway through this year, and Today begins on a Monday, I can already tell the energy it's coming with.
I want to start Today by reflecting on my mistakes from last month, and rearranging my goals so that it aligns with my priorities. We grow everyday. We grow each day. We grew today. And the mistakes of yesterday will only make us twice as good as we are Today.
It does not do to dwell on what we can't control. We can control how we want Today to be, and some events that happened Today we may not understand or be able to control and that's okay. As long as we don't let it weigh us down. We can live Today to the fullest by taking each day one step at a time, one decision at a time and we will feel less overwhelmed.
Statistics has shown that a lot of people are so concerned about life's problems that it is hard for them to even notice the beauty and opportunity of seeing a new day. They wake up and expect Today to be the same as other days and so they're wrapped round their anxieties and can't make the most out of Today and so the cycle continues.
Today is the present. Not the past or the future. It is the best place to live in. The present. It is not advisable to get so wrapped up with what happened yesterday that one misses out on the opportunities that life has in store for you Today.
It is very important to live in the moment, people say live Today like it's your last because you do not know what tomorrow may bring. I agree. I agree that we should live Today with a little more kindness, a little more love, a little more smile, a little more care in the world, and try to find happiness in little things. It makes each day worthwhile.
If you've been struggling to find yourself and you feel like you can't take it one more day, sometimes I feel the same way too but if I quit Today, I'm still going to wind up back where I started which isn't a very good place to be. You can push again today, you can try again. Give it everything you've got. If you keep going Today, and challenge yourself, you will feel alive.
You'll feel like you've accomplished something even though it's the smallest win. One small tip that may help you make the most of out of Today is to have a routine. If you make it a habit to follow a particular routine dedicatedly, it will become a lifestyle that will stick with you for the longest possible time and it will be difficult to get thrown off balance especially with your goals because it is now a lifestyle.
Believe in yourself and raise the bar on yourself Today. Today is one of those days where you get up, tell yourself that you're going to be better than how you were yesterday and that you won't allow your insecurities get the better of you, you will say yes,you will ignore that small voice at the back of your head telling you that you can't do it, telling you to be scared, to wait for the perfect time, which might never come.
Fear is only an illusion, it is a facade appearing real. It is your job to see through it so that you can make it through Today.
You've come too far to give up now, Today may be that YES day, Today may be the day you finally get that answered prayer. That's why each day is special and Today is one of those special days.

Thanks for the review. I appreciate
Oh YES! Today is that YES day, as yesterday is gone and tomorrow must still happen. (•ิ‿•ิ)
It is wonderful that you took the first day of the month to reflect on your mistakes from the previous month.
With each day, we can only strive to be that better person.
Good luck!
You're absolutely right. Whatever you do the first day of the week tells how other days would be. Thanks for this warmth.
