I try to look on all the great things God's done, and not focus on the negative. It's a perspective.

When you get up and say, "God, I want to thank you for being alive, I've got family, I've got my health," you're going to draw in more of the good things from God.

Sometimes what works 40 years ago doesn't work today.

When we focus on or disappointments , we stop God from ringing fresh new blessing into our lives.

John Bunyan, author of the classic book the Pilgrim’s Progress, said “You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who cannot pay you back.” Make a decision that you will live to give. Be on the lookout each day for somebody you can bless. Don’t’ live for yourself; learn to give yourself away, and your life will make a difference.

We have to realize that our lives could be gone in a moment. There are no guarantees that we will be here at this time next year. Learn to live each day to the fullest. Don't complain. Don't focus on what's wrong. Be grateful for the opportunity to experience each day.

Let go of yesterday. Let today be a new beginning and be the best that you can, and you'll get to where God wants you to be.
