Just for today, I will live through this day only and not tackle my whole life at once.
Just for today, I will be happy. Most people are as happy as they make up their minds to be.
Just for today, I will adjust myself to what is and not to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take it as it comes and fit myself to it.
Just for today, I will strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful.
Just for today, I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a good turn and not be found out; if anyone knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don’t want to do, just for the exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt. They may be hurt, but today I will not show it.
Just for today, I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, talk low, act courteously, criticise not one bit, and not find fault with anything.
Just for today, I will have a programme. I may not follow it exactly but I will have it.
Just for today, I will have a quiet half hour to myself and relax.
Just for today, I will be unafraid. I will enjoy what is beautiful and believe that as I give to the world so the world will give to me.
