Tomorrow is a label not a destination
Things were going wrong for almost the entire first half of the day today. I considered going back to bed and pulling the covers over my head. I did take a short nap for about fifteen minutes. Sometimes just a few minutes of being quiet and still is all it takes to bring me back to my calm center and realign my mind. I believe I was born to be a writer, but I have declined to follow my heart for many years; up until this year. "Tomorrow" used to be my go-to mantra. Procrastination was the balm to my work weary body and mostly neglected mind. No more! Anyway, quite often the absolute best ideas I have as a writer happen in those few brief minutes upon waking. Today wasn't so much an idea as it was just a little bit clearer focus. When I got up from that short nap, I had a renewed purpose and a better attitude. This year I am determined to accomplish several major goals in my life. Around the same time that I started with wealthy affiliate (sometime in June) I began writing a book. I am over halfway done with the book. I have started a gratitude box. Each day I write down something I'm grateful for that day on an index card and put it in the box. I have filled my office with positive messages. The sign in the picture above is one message that I read every day since it hangs directly across from my desk. The photo below is just a small corner in my office. I spend some time each day doing a task that I really don't want to do, but I know it will benefit me in the long run. I have determined that every day that I am given will be filled with as much possibility, purpose and passion as I can fit into it! I am on my road to success. On my road there are no tomorrows, only today!

Jeff,
Thank you for the kind and encouraging words. It seems some days that we can't get enough kindness and encouragement. I appreciate you.
You are very welcomes, Mindy, and I know exactly what you mean! Sometimes, just merely a kind word from someone will change the trajectory of your whole day!

We all experience those slower days from time to time Mindy...
Stick with it my friend and with your positive mindset I am sure that you will do well in the future!
Every single day is a success in some way. Some days the success is very small and hard to find but that doesn't mean that it's not there.
Spot on my friend!
