Take care of yourself today: the most important thing you can do
Yes, that is correct. Achieve your goals today, that’s enough. Nothing else is important.
You can’t do anything with yesterdays and if you do well today, tomorrow will take care of itself. Here are some thoughts on how to make today the best.
First, start with a goal that, if achieved, will put you ahead of yesterday. Some examples might be: To make one more call, or To close one more sale, or To get to work on time, or To keep a positive outlook on the future, or God forbid, To take care of that nasty customer service issue. what needs a solution etc.
Second, expect positive things to happen. Expect to be better today than you were yesterday. Make it happen! Do some of the things you know you should do, but put them off because you don’t like to do them or don’t know how to do them. Think and act like a winner!
Third, help someone else achieve an important goal or at least encourage someone with words and deeds. Nothing makes you feel better than helping someone else and seeing them take the next step.
Fourth, evaluate what you have accomplished today. Compare the results with your own expectations. If your accomplishments don’t meet your goal, you’ll have an idea of where you need help. Take heart, when this day is over it will be over so make sure you have taken a positive step. Expect to do even better tomorrow.
Can life really be that simple? Handsome!
