Today I Will Make A Difference

Today I Will Make A Difference

I find this article interesting, it is worth your reading.

Today, I will make a difference. I will begin by controlling my thoughts. A person is the product of his thoughts. I want to be happy and hopeful. Therefore, I will have thoughts that are happy and hopeful. I refuse to be victimized by my circumstances. I will not let petty inconveniences such as stoplights, long lines, and traffic jams be my masters. I will avoid negativism and gossip. Optimism will be my companion, and victory will be my hallmark. Today, I will make a difference.

I will spend time with those I love. My spouse, my children, my family, etc. A man can own the worldbut be poor for the lack of love. A man can own nothing and yet be wealthy in relationships. Today I will spend at least 5 minutes with the significant people in my world. Five quality minutes of talking or hugging or thanking or listening. Five undiluted minutes with my mate, children, and friends.
