Experience today


Today you have the opportunity for a great experience. Today you have the undeniable chance to really live.

It is up to you to take advantage of that opportunity. It is up to you to make the most of this day, and to live the great, unique experience this day offers.

Perhaps you'll conclude that there are too many problems keeping you from experiencing a great day, yet that would be an unfortunate mistake. For even in the face of overwhelming problems and obstacles, today can be a truly unique and positive experience.

In fact, those problems can play a very positive role in the great experience of this day. By working your way through whatever may come along, you build a greater appreciation for all the goodness that surrounds you.

You also build your confidence, strength and effectiveness to higher and higher levels. And that opens the doors to vast new areas of opportunity and achievement.

Today is here now, so go ahead and jump into it with everything you have. Experience the richness of this day, and you'll carry its unique value with you always.

Everything you have

There is so very much available to you. In reaching for your dreams, make use of everything you have.

Don't be dismayed or embarrassed by what you have to work with. Instead, work with whatever you have and it will grow more useful and effective with each effort.

Don't place a judgment on your abilities before you even put them to use. Go ahead, get to work, and see how quickly your skills increase.

Look back at the good things you've accomplished in the past. That power of accomplishment is still with you, so choose now to put it to use again for even more exciting and compelling purposes.

Think of all the great ideas you've had but have never followed through on. Now is when you can make the best of them come to life.

The challenges are great and yet the value that flows through your life is far greater. Use everything you can, and you can accomplish anything you choose.

Connection

Conflict is not your nature. Peace is your true home.

When you choose to see yourself as apart from others, you separate yourself from your greatest possibilities. Feel the connection with all that is, and naturally know the peaceful power and effectiveness that is yours.

Improve the lives of others, and your own life benefits greatly. The more joy you give away, the more joy you experience.

You can never truly gain at another person's expense. Yet you always receive when you work to sincerely give.

Live each day with awareness and respect for your ever-present connection with everything that is. Work to enrich every little corner of your world, and you will experience the abundance of that richness.

Let the peace that lives deep within you influence each thought and deed. And make the whole world a more beautiful place.

"C'mon! give it a shot."

The fear of not knowing how something will turn out is enough to make anyone say, "Forget it." Rather than dealing with problems head on, sometimes it's easier to ignore them and hope they'll go away. When we're tired of trying, it's tempting to think that, since nothing has worked in the past, we're powerless.

Does any of this ring a bell? If so, it's probably because you put way too much pressure on yourself to have things always work out well. With a mindset like this you're missing out on opportunities, relief and good fortune, simply because you didn't try.

There are no guarantees in any of our lives. Things may or may not work out. Just because they "may not" work out, it's not an excuse not to try.

Next time you find yourself saying, "Forget it," or "No thanks," give it a shot and say, "Why not?" instead. Jump in with both feet and see what happens.
