Today in one thing I know I am equal with all others—Time. All of us draw the same salary in seconds, minutes and hours.
Today I will not waste my time because the minutes I wasted yesterday are as lost as a vanished thought.
Today I refuse to spend time worrying about what might happen…--it usually doesn’t.
I am going to spend my time making things happen.
Today I am determined to study to improve myself, for tomorrow I may be wanted and I must not be found lacking.
Today I determined to do the things I should do. I firmly determine to stop doing the things I should not do.
Today I begin by doing and not wasting my time. In one week I will be miles beyond the person I am today.
Today I will not imagine what I would do if things were different. They are not different. I will make success with what material I have.
Today I will stop saying “If I had time”—I know I never will “find time” for anything. If I want time, I must make it.
Today I will act toward other people as though this might be my last day on earth. I will not wait for tomorrow. Tomorrow never comes…
