It doesn’t really matter from which source you have learned this principle, if you can learn to follow it. Live each day as it comes. Today is a good day.
You woke up, didn’t you? Then it’s good.
This simple yet at the same time profound bit of wisdom can be found in many sources including the Bible and various 12 step programs for addiction. It’s just common sense. This isn’t to say go crazy each day living it like it’s your last, yet if we learned to focus more on the here and now, we’d be happier and more relaxed.
Of course, some planning for the future is required. Yet, when we spend all of our time worrying about tomorrow and next week and next year, today passes by without living it to its full potential.
Today is a good day.
It might not be perfect; in fact, there may be many not so good things going on in a single day. However, there is something good about this day and we’d all be better off if we spent more time enjoying the good parts of life instead of letting stress take over. Worrying about things doesn’t make problems go away, it only compounds them.
Live your life… today.
