Every day is a new beginning, a new life, a new dream, and a new goal. If you are not happy with what is going on in your life, you still have a chance.

Do not waste your day. You can choose how you want to live your day. ‘If today was your last day on earth, how would you live it?’

Are you going to waste it? No, don’t! You are in charge of your life. Remember that how you live your day is how you live your life.

You can choose to have a good day. You can also choose to have a bad day. But a good day is better than a bad day.

To have a good day, do the following things:

Forgive yourself.

Forgiveness is freedom. It sets you free. Remember that forgiveness is not about the other person. Forgiveness is about you. It is about your freedom. If you want to live a peaceful life, a purposeful life, forgiveness is the way.

According to Anthony Evans, ‘Forgiveness doesn’t just set someone else free. It sets you free too.’

Be grateful for your life.

When you are grateful for what you have, you will have more. When you are grateful for what people have done for you, when you are grateful for what God has done for you, you will always have more things to celebrate, to be grateful for.

‘Gratitude gives us energy to keep moving forward and brings us peace.’- Anthony Evans

Make yourself feel special.

According to Joel Osteen, ‘People may not make you feel special, but you can make yourself feel special.’ Do not wait for other people to make you special. Today is a special day to do that for yourself. Whatever it is that you can give yourself, do not look to your outside world for answers.

Choose to be happy.

The only thing you need to do to be happy is to choose yourself, is to choose your day. Gina Mellicone- Long was right when she said, ‘The only thing you need to do to be happy is to choose to be happy. Happiness is a way of being.‘ If you really want to be happy, all you need to do is to choose you. Do the right things. Do not focus on what is bothering you. Instead, focus on making your day a special one. And that is within your power. You can do it. Why not today?

Wherever you are, always Recruit The Best!
