Beginning

"Every morning is a fresh beginning. Every day is the world made new. Today is a new day. Today is my world made new. I have lived all my life up to this moment, to come to this day. This moment--this day--is as good as any moment in all eternity. I shall make of this day--each moment of this day--a heaven on earth. This is my day of opportunity."
Dan Custer

Do you start the day fresh? Or do you start it worrying about what went wrong yesterday, or what might go wrong today because of it? Most of us live in the past. Our egos are built out of past experiences, and even when we think about the future, most of the time we are just projecting past experiences into the future. Even our laws talk about precedent.

But in reality the future doesn't have to have anything to do with the past. The future depends on what we do right now. All our power to change anything is in this moment. The past is over and done with. We may not like it but the only thing we can do about it is to correct our mistakes or do damage control as much as we can today. We can only act in the present. We can only ensure a desirable future by doing all the right things right now. If we are busy worrying about what happened in the past, we are not holding our full attention on what we can do right now to move towards our goals.

This moment is as good as any to get started towards our goals. There is no reason to wait. Why not take each moment and make it a special moment, a heaven on earth. This is your day of opportunity. This moment is your only opportunity. Make sure you seize it!
