The Importance of Today

today is the most important day in our life. 
 
 Today is the first day of the rest of your life. After a less than productive, exhausted, unfocused, day yesterday, that left me feeling a bit in the blah, I went to sleep visualizing
 what I wanted in life that I didn’t do anything to accomplish yesterday
 or this week so far. I was inspired to write this today because when I 
woke up, due to my positive visualizations
 and reflection, my first thought this morning, was: “Today is the first
 day of the rest of MY life”. I popped out of bed and was motivated 
again.

Now why is this thought so powerful and motivating?

Well, here is the reasoning behind it. Every day, we go about doing 
our usual thing & our usual routine. We operate almost in a robot 
state of mind and reality. We think about our problems, what we have to 
do, when will we be able do it, and sometimes it leads us to stop 
thinking about things we could do to benefit our future. We just do what
 we need to get by for the day. We wake up in our reality, knowing where
 we are in life, and what we want, but forget to stop, internalize our 
“real wants for the future”, & prioritize doing things that day to 
get ahead. We often just do whatever we “have” to do just to get by… due
 to fear, insecurity, laziness, or procrastination. Then suddenly we 
find ourselves feeling unmotivated, down, and in a blah state of non 
movement which is hard to get out of. So here are some reminders to get 
you back on track and motivate you like I did to myself this morning!

1.) YOU are totally in CONTROL of YOUR WORDS today. (YOU CHOOSE to SAY THEM)

a.) The way you speak to others today, words you choose to use, and 
tone of your voice, will influence others thoughts, perception, and 
reaction towards you. Their reaction will bounce onto you & either 
make you feel negative, or fuel you with positive thoughts and feelings.
 How you make people feel about themselves is important. It benefits you
 & can cause conflict or keep it away. It can also energize you when
 a happy person projects the gratitude of how you made them feel onto 
you. You control this! Huge secret. Use it. <img alt=";)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://kamukamo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif" />

2.) YOU are totally in CONTROL of YOUR THOUGHTS and FOCUS today. (YOU CHOOSE to THINK THEM)

a.)What will you focus on today in the scheme of life to make positive changes?

b.)What will you focus on today that helps you MOVE FORWARD in life towards a goal?

c.)What will you choose to purposefully NOT focus on and push aside because it’s wasting your time? 
3.) YOU are totally IN CHARGE of YOUR ACTIONS today. (YOU CHOOSE to DO THEM & when you WILL)

a.)What are you going to do to fix a problem, mend a relationship, 
fix yourself, or advance yourself towards a goal you want to accomplish?

b.)When are you going to do it? Today is a good day to start. Right now. Take the first step.

WHAT we do & WHEN we will do it ( are the important factors here! )

If you think about it, it’s rather exciting! I can control everything
 in my day from what I say, to what I do, to actually influence others 
positively (which benefits me), and to be one step more accomplished 
tomorrow! So can you. We have that power. What you decide to focus on 
and do today will affect your tomorrow either negatively OR positively. 
If you focus on building and accomplishing positive actions today, 
instead of just staying paralyzed in a rut, or walking in a circle of 
daily life “I have to do’s” only, YOU WILL not only have a new positive 
built tomorrow, you will be motivated to keep building through your 
accomplishment. It feels good to get something positive done and built 
for the future. We instinctively want to build on it more as it gets 
bigger. And remember: nothing that happened in the past, or yesterday, 
dictates what will happen in your future and where your life will end 
up. Unless you let it.

So Take charge of it. Who cares that yesterday wasn’t that great and 
nothing got done. I didn’t! Lol. Oh well! WE can make up for it and move
 ahead today! I’m more motivated today to do! TODAY is the rest of my 
NEW improved exciting fast forward pace life! That’s what I’m thinking! <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://kamukamo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" />

TAKE charge of your thoughts, focus, and actions right now. Think of 
& DO something positive to move you foward today for tomorrow… so 
you can build on it. Now! Stop focusing on what you didn’t do, the rut 
your in, what you need to do. YOU CAN at least get started on something 
for the future and do one small thing to get started. Build small things
 on one another and then get on a roll with out realizing it. But you 
have to decide you are going to do it, and start. Not tommorrow. Today. 
You are in control. Not me or the person next to you. What you do today 
affects tommorrow. If you do nothing, then tommorrow your back where you
 were at today. Get it? I know you can. <img alt=":)" class="wp-smiley" src="http://kamukamo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" /> xo
