JUST FOR TODAY

I will live through this day only.

I will not brood about yesterday or obsess about tomorrow.

I will not set far-reaching goals or try to overcome all of my

problems at

once.

I know I can do something for 24 hours that would overwhelm me if I

had to

keep it up for a lifetime.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will be happy.

I will not dwell on thoughts that depress me.

If my mind fills with clouds, I will chase them away and fill it with

sunshine.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will accept what is.

I will face reality.

I will correct those things I can correct, and accept those things I

cannot.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will improve my mind.

I will read something that requires effort, thought and

concentration.

I will not be a mental loafer.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable.

I will be kind and courteous to those who cross my path, and I'll

not speak

ill of others.

I will improve my appearance, speak softly, and not interrupt when

someone

else is talking. Just for today, I will refrain from improving

anybody but

myself.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will do something positive to improve my health.

If I'm a smoker, I'll quit. If I'm overweight, I will eat

healthfully-if

only just for today.

And not only that, I will get off the couch and take a brisk walk,

even if

it's only around the block.

JUST FOR TODAY

I will gather the courage to do what is right and take

responsibility for my

own actions.

All we have to do is take one.
