Today I will be the master of my emotions.

Deliver more than you are getting paid to do. The victory of success will be half won when you learn the secret of putting out more than is expected in all that you do. Make yourself so valuable in your work that eventually you will become indispensable. Exercise your privilege to go the extra mile, and enjoy all the rewards you receive.

Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all.

Never again clutter your days or nights with so many menial and unimportant things that you have no time to accept a real challenge when it comes along.

I will laugh at the world. And most of all, I will laugh at myself for man is most comical when he takes himself too seriously.

Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

I will persist. I will always take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another.
