Give purpose to this day

To get the most out of this day, give it a purpose. Instead of just taking whatever comes, experience this day the way you choose to experience it.

If this day has no clear purpose, then you're likely to be tossed around by all the random things that happen. Yet when you've made a firm commitment to a specific result, your focused direction will enable you to rise above the distractions and diversions.

If you're standing still, wondering what to do next, the obstacles will push you back. Yet when you're already moving forward and you encounter obstacles, your momentum will help carry you through them.

Give this day a purpose that will excite you, motivate you, ignite your passion and compel you to get moving. Give yourself something good and meaningful to show for the time you spend living this day.

When the next step is clear, you're much more likely to take it. When you've decided exactly what is to be done, you're much more likely to do it.

There is enormous positive potential in this very day. Give this day a purpose, and claim some of the great value it offers.
