Jan. 30, 2012 - Just for Today

Just for Today
Monday, Jan. 30, 2012

Just for today, I will work for progress instead of perfection. And, in recognizing the difference, I might learn patience over impatience not only with others, but with myself. Progress requires that I focus on just this day while perfection forces me to look to the unrealistic and unattainable goals of the future. But by preoccupying myself with tomorrow, I am likely to neglect something today - and that failure will likely sabotage any tomorrow I might have. Tomorrow will hold nothing good if I neglect today. Today, then, will be focused on one day at a time, first things first and one thing at a time. And our common journey continues. Just for today. - Chris M., 2012
