Powerful positive start

Before you go to bed tonight, give yourself a compelling reason to get up and get started right away tomorrow. Be clear in advance, motivated in advance, and you’ll give the day a powerful positive start.

Don’t waste half the morning wondering what you’ll do or convincing yourself to do it. You already know tomorrow is coming, so build in your plan and your enthusiasm for it today.

Create a shield to protect yourself from indecision, distraction, and regret. Energize your life, your mind, your experience with a day that gets off to a great start and then just keeps getting better.

Tomorrow you’ll wake up to a whole new day, filled with great possibilities. Invest a little time and thought today, getting yourself prepared to make full use of the opportunity.

Infuse yourself now with excitement about the progress you can make. Let your positive expectations take root and begin to grow.

A new day is already on its way here, and with it you can choose to do many great things. So decide today to give your tomorrow a powerful positive start.

Living your beliefs

Don’t be content to merely believe the truth. Seek to experience it for yourself.

Your belief may be strong and unwavering. Yet there is a difference between belief and certainty.

Reach that certainty by living your beliefs, by continually putting them into practice. Solidify your understanding of the truth by experiencing its essence for yourself.

It can be interesting and stimulating to speculate about what might or might not be true, what might or might not happen, what might or might not work. What’s much more powerful, though, is to know for sure.

Take what you’ve been told, what you’ve come to believe, as a starting point. Then take it further by discovering its truth for yourself.

Honor your trust, your faith, your belief by transforming it all, through your actions, into certainty. Truth rises to a whole new level when it comes to life in you.

Awareness of the future

What’s extremely valuable about the future is that you know it is coming. You can prepare yourself, and take actions now that will benefit your future.

You can delay gratification, develop positive relationships by being considerate of others, and work to develop new skills. These strategies, and many others, create large rewards in the future from relatively small efforts in the present.

If you save ten dollars a day, each day, in a few years you’ll be able to pay your future self ten thousand dollars. When you factor the future into your decisions, those decisions create a more desirable future.

Looking toward the future also will improve your discipline, effectiveness and experience of fulfillment today. As you’re building a great future you can live at your best in the present.

Just knowing that the future is coming puts you at a great advantage. Being able to do something positive about it vastly multiplies that advantage.

Claim the full benefit of your good fortune. Make choices that enable you to live well now while also creating your best possible future.

When you do it

The work will be done when you do it. The problem will be solved when you solve it.

The money will be yours when you earn it. The skill will be yours when you learn it.

It’s not magic that creates the good and desirable things in life. It is focused, committed, persistent effort.

If you want life to improve in some particular way, then do the improving, be the improver. Jump to your feet and make it happen.

Skip straight past the wishing, begging, agonizing, theorizing, and wondering when the situation will get better. Step up, take action, and keep at it until you get the results you’re after.

You know what makes a difference, what brings value to life, and you know you can do it. So go ahead, without further hesitation, and get it done.
