Yesterday I failed. Yesterday I failed to accomplish everything that was on my to-do list. Sound familiar?

Reflecting upon the day, I rate my effort and discipline both at a 9/10 (90%) because I will never live the perfect day. I can always do better. I’m not going to boast about everything I accomplished but to sum up my day I arose at 4am, setting my self up for success by having my clothes laid out, meals prepared and to-do list already made.
Even though I feel I did my very best I still did not get everything done that I wanted or needed to. I forget who said it and on what podcast but someone must smarter than me once said, “Everyday I have 25 things on my to-do list. I get to do 3 of them. I must choose wisely.”
Despite not living the perfect day, When I went to bed last night I was exhausted but very satisfied because I knew I had given my very best to the mission at hand. Today is a new day. It is important because I am trading a day of my life for it. I will be better. I will Love more. I will give more effort. I will be more positive and I will be disciplined in all areas. Tomorrow I will be better than I am today.
Have a great and blessed day my friends. Let’s change the world!
