What kind of day is yours?

If you spend too much of your time alone then sooner or later you'll start talking to yourself. Everyone does it and most of us know enough to not let it get the best of who we are. Talking to yourself, or allowing the subconscious to control your every waking moments can become self-defeating. Whose life is it anyway? Your's or your subconscious? Often your past controls your subconscious leaving your present cloudy and dark and your future in jeopardy.

Take in the awe the day God has created. Taking time to smell the roses actually is pretty good advice. Take it from me, I'm an expert in dealing with the past because for most of my life I've worked with people who continue to live in it.  Sounds great for most to dwell there, except for the fact the 'present' disappears and you find yourself reliving the past for whatever it was worth, or shaping the future on false premises.

Congratulate yourself for becoming aware of what's going on in your life and having made the decision to change the hurts of yesterday. Walk on the sunny side of the street and quit judging others as if they're books on a shelf and the only way you'll read the book is if it has a nice cover. Don't continue in yesterday's mistakes. Yesterday is over and today is a new day.

Let's face it. The past and future are only a heartbeat away - too close to measure. In fact so close it's easy to see how you can get squeezed from the present without knowing it. The only thing you can control is your present state of mind. Be there, in the moment, and soon you'll appreciate just how grateful others are to know you, in the same way you'll feel about them.

Never blame a day in your life for your problems because good days give happiness, bad days give experience, worst days give lessons, and best days give memories. 

So what kind of day is yours today?
