Today Is the First Day of the Rest of Your Life.
Today is the first day of the rest of your life. I am sure you have heard this expression. What does it mean?
To me, it means that if I made a mistake yesterday. I have today to start all over again. To negate that mistake I made yesterday by learning from it and moving onward and upward.
It means if I didn't do something I should have done, I have today, the first day of the rest of my life to fix that. It means I can move forward without looking back and dwelling on the past. What's done is done. You cannot change what you have already done but you can make a vastly improved today.
There is no need to worry about mistakes you may make tomorrow. Tomorrow never truly comes.
This applies to anything; including your online business. If you don't have a successful today, you haven't done anything to make it a success. If you had problems with your business and resolved them, you have made a success of the day.
Be passionate about today. This day is a gift for you. That is why it is called "the present"
The first day of the rest of your life depends entirely on you and how you go into the day. Will you be positive? Will you think about and learn from the errors of yesterday? Will you not allow yourself to dwell on those errors but start the new day with a fresh outlook?
Tell yourself that today is the first day of the rest of your life and will be your BEST day. Learn to constantly improve on what you did yesterday and do that every today that comes your way.
