Today Is the Day

Yesterday is gone.  It will hopefully be remembered for the lessons it brought and the good it gave us.  Tomorrow is a dream.  We are not there yet.  Today is the day we can work to change and make better.

Today I will help others less fortunate than myself.  I will build my business as a life coach.  I will help where I can, and I will strive to do no harm.  Today is the day where I can do my best and use the work which I do to make a positive change in myself and others.

I cannot worry or grieve over the past, for it is gone.  I, nor anyone I know, can go back and change anything that happened in the past.  I also cannot worry about the future.  How can I fear for something that has not happened and only has a 35% chance of actually coming to be?

If I ignore that which I cannot change or has not happened yet and concentrate on what I can do now, think of all the good I could do.  The actions I take today may help the future go smoother. 

We honor the past and hope for the future. We live and work today.

Thank you for being with me today.  I hope to be with you again tomorrow.

A retired Air Force Master Sergeant, Mike used to lay in bed at night and worry about what would happen if his plant closed or found himself without a job. One day his plant closed. Rather than panic and hysteria (OK, maybe a little) Mike found himself carried away on the adventure of his life. Mike started with the best job he ever had working at Home Depot. He spent 8 years working with job seekers at a local workforce center, helping them to find employment. He then started his own company developing courses, writing books and urging others to follow their own paths into the future. Mike holds a Master of Arts in Adult Education and Training and a Bachelor of Business Management, earned through the University of Phoenix and an AAS degree in Electronics Systems Technology from the Community College of the Air Force. Mike is a member of the Delta Mu Delta Business Honor Society. View all posts by Mike Balof
