Just for today I will be happy. This assumes what Abraham Lincoln said is true that "most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds tobe". Happiness is from within; it is not a matter of external.
***
***
Just for today I will try to adjust myself to what is and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my family, my business, and my luck as they come and fit myself to them.
***
***
Just for today I will take care of my body. I will exercise it, care for it, nourish it, not abuse it nor neglect it, so that it will be a perfect machine for my work.
***
***
Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will learn something useful. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.
***
***
Just for today I will do somebody some help and not get found out.
***
***
Just for today I will be agreeable.
***
***
I will look as well as I can, dress as neatly as possible, talk low, act courteously, be liberal with praise, criticise not at all, nor find fault with anything and not try to regulare nor improve anyone.
***
***
Just for today I will try to live through this day only, not to tackle my whole life problems at once.
***
***
Just for today I will have a programme. I will write down what I expect to do everyday. I will eliminate two pests, hurry and indecision.
***
***
Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. In this half hour, sometimes I will think of God so as to get a little more inspiration into my life.
***
***
Just for today I will not be afraid to be happy, to enjoy what is beautiful, to love and to believe that those I love, Love me.__
