Take the win

When you get up in the morning and your world is still intact, take the win. When you complete what you’ve set out to do, take the win.

Take the win, thankful for your opportunity to have a positive influence. Take the win, and go forward with it.

Certainly you’re smart to take your concerns and challenges into consideration. Yet it’s also important to balance those thoughts with appreciation for the good that exists around you.

Rather than worrying about losing the ground you’ve just gained, take the win. Take the win and draw from it a calm inspiration to keep going.

You haven’t done everything perfectly, yet you have made progress. Give yourself some credit for how far you’ve come, and you’ll set yourself up to continue moving forward.

Take the win, not with arrogance but with gratitude, kindness, and the best of expectations. Take the win, and be generous in sharing your good fortune with all of life.

— Ralph Marston
