We are either progressing or retrograding all the while. There is no such thing as remaining stationary in this life.

Such a day

Imagine how it would be to spend just one day sincerely caring about everything and worrying about nothing. Just think of what you could accomplish in such a frame of mind.

You would look at every situation with a new and empowering perspective. You would see possibilities and opportunities instead of problems and limitations. There would be no hopeless situations, no cause for panic, no reason for any anxiety. You would simply have work to be done, and you would go about doing it cheerfully, enthusiastically, and with the highest of expectations.

Your mind would focus on the best way to move forward rather than on the biggest excuse for staying put. You would know with confidence that giving and creating produces infinitely more value than taking and hoarding.

Such a day would be filled with value, with joy, with accomplishment and fulfillment. And the best thing is that such a day is yours to live any time you choose, even this very moment.
