Remind thyself, in the darkest moments, that every failure is only a step toward success, ... Your life will never be the same again.

I will greet this day with love in my heart.

Laugh at yourself and at life. Not in the spirit of derision or whining self-pity, but as a remedy, a miracle drug, that will ease your pain, cure your depression, and help you to put in perspective that seemingly terrible defeat... Never take yourself too seriously.

You will achieve your grand dream, a day at a time, so set goals for each day.

I will work when failures seek rest.

You will achieve grand dream, a day at a time, so set goals for each day - not long and difficult projects, but chores that will take you, step by step, toward your rainbow. Write them down, if you must, but limit your list so that you won't have to drag today's undone matters into tomorrow. Remember that you cannot build your pyramid in twenty-four hours. Be patient. Never allow your day to become so cluttered that you neglect your most important goal - to do the best you can, enjoy this day, and rest satisfied with what you have accomplished.

I will not allow yesterday's success to lull me into today's complacency, for this is the great foundation of failure.
