JUST FOR TODAY - Josh Hinds
Just for today -- and in the event that the entire day is
too scary -- suspend your disbelief just for a moment and
consider the following...
* Just for today act as if you can accomplish whatever your
mind can conceive.
* Just for today smile at the person you might not know very
well, but for some reason feel as though they would benefit
from just knowing that others out there take notice.
* Just for today encourage someone. I can tell you that
through the work I do every day encouraging others through
my writing, speaking, or consulting, you simply can't
imagine what a positive impact such a simple gesture like
letting others know you believe in them can have. Try it --
just for today find someone (or even better several people)
and just let loose and rain down on them with some positive
encouragement.
* Just for today, know without a doubt that whatever
challenges you are experiencing, no matter how hard, are not
permanent.
* Just for today stop long enough to smell the roses (or
whatever flower happens to be nearby). Beauty, interesting
surround us, but because we’re so dialed into what's going
on in our immediate bubble -- the challenges which are in
our immediate sphere we often let those "good things" pass
us by. Take a moment to just relax, go for a walk -- unplug
from your regular fast pace for just a bit. Take things in.
Schedule a little downtime. If you’re thinking, "Josh, you
don't know what all I have going on, I don't have a second
free!" You’re right, I don't know your schedule. That said,
I know for a fact that if you'll make time (notice I didn't
say find time, I said make time -- and schedule accordingly
if necessary) you'll magically find the time you’re looking
for. Isn't it amazing how that works? :-)
* Just for today (and everyday for that matter!) choose to
LIVE BIG! You do this by living by choice, rather than
chance -- as so many end up doing. Living by choice isn't
overly complicated. It starts with writing out what you want
to see occur in your life -- and then writing down the steps
and then every single day doing them. Easy to do, easy not
to do. But friend, don't be lazy here -- you deserve better
than that in life.
* Just for today believe that you are indeed an artist which
GOD has given a big bold canvas upon which you can literally
paint your perfect life on -- provided you’re willing to do
so.
Every single day remember...
It's Your Life, LIVE BIG!
