But you can imagine that it can become routine. To prevent this, the host doesn't tell me the topic before we go live on the air-now that puts some excitement into it! This week, he asked me: How can a person guarantee that they will have a great day, every day? Some may find that hard to answer, but for me it was easy. You see, I believe we can control our destinies and create for ourselves the kind of lives we desire. People who live based on these principles achieve what they desire, while people who live reacting to circumstances do not. Here are the principles for having a GREAT day every day: Focus on today only. Yes, long-range goals are important. But our focus must be on today. My equation is that your short-term tasks, multiplied by time, equal your long-term accomplishments. With that in mind, it's imperative that we focus on short-term because, when multiplied by time, it will eventually equal our long-term goals. Don't worry about tomorrow. Make today the best day you have ever had. Realize that when you lay down to sleep tonight you will have just given up the only shot you will ever have at today. You only get one shot at your today, so focus intently on making it all that it possibly can be. Focus, focus, focus! When you focus on making today great, you are helping guarantee that you will make your day GREAT, every day! Embrace your power to choose. Dwight D. Eisenhower said, "The history of free men is never written by chance but by choice-their choice." When your today becomes your yesterday, you will look back and realize that day was a result of your choices. "But wait Chris, what if my boss controlled my day? That isn't my choice!" you might say. But it is your choice to work for someone else. You chose to let someone else tell you what to do. But you can control your own destiny. The moment we realize that we can exercise a powerful gift from God, namely the gift of free will and choice, is when we begin to create for ourselves a GREAT day each and every day! Take ownership of the direction of your life. Make your choices and carry them out! Your attitude is up to you. Yes, bad things may happen in your day. The pitcher for "Team Circumstances" may have a tremendous curveball waiting for you, and you cannot control that. You cannot control what others may do or say. But you can control your attitude. Your attitude about whatever happens to you is up to you. When something happens to you, you have the choice: Will you let it get you down and depressed, keeping you from forging ahead and making the day the best one ever? Or will you say to yourself that, no matter what happens, you are on the path to success and no obstacle will keep you from it? Will you say, "Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose-I guess this time I lost"? Will you say, "Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn-I can really learn something from this!"? It is all in what attitude you choose. Your attitude is up to you, and when you choose to have a great attitude, you are choosing to guarantee to have a GREAT day, every day! Live out and act on your priorities. So far, we have dealt with internal perspectives, and that is indeed the place to start. But the practical place is in our priorities. If we want to make our days great, then we have to live out those things that will by definition make our days great. And those things are what are important to us. They are our priorities. So each morning, start out by asking, "What things are important to me today? What are the things I need to accomplish in order for me to lay down tonight and know that I lived a GREAT day?" Then put those in order of most important to least important. Don't do what is fun. Don't do what is easy. Do what is IMPORTANT! Live out your priorities. When you do, you will guarantee that you will make your day GREAT, every day! Tomorrow, when you wake up, go through the four following points and see if you don't make tomorrow a GREAT day: a.. Focus on today only. b.. Understand that I get to choose how today will go. c.. Remain in a positive attitude no matter what happens. d.. Live out and act on my priorities. Do this, and you will guarantee a GREAT day, every day. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Ingin bergabung ke milis ekonomi-nasional?
