Appreciate Everything

When I appreciate the Higher Power, the truth, myself, as well as other human beings, then, in effect I have made the commitment to see the beauty of this life. Appreciating others, appreciating nature, appreciating my fortune and the value in the lessons of life is the result of understanding the secrets of this life. 
 Today let me appreciate each second in this way, and then the life will be filled with unlimited moments of beauty and love.

Be Adaptive

We all have weaknesses that make it difficult for us to adapt to the needs of a situation. Our weaknesses can make us inflexible and blind to new possibilities. To have the ability to adapt gives me the ability to handle any situation. I become as flexible and beautiful as pure gold, which transforms when heated into something beautiful. I embrace change, and this equips me to enjoy the beauty I create and the joy I spread. 
Today let me be adaptive and be open to the new possibilities.

Determination

Determination is the strength that will bring me success. I need to recognize that difficulties are not as huge as they might initially seem. And that though time seems to stand still, it is moving on – and every new minute brings a renewed opportunity for change and success. I need to develop the determination to work on my problems with this understanding. I will then be able to face any situation with ease. 
Today let me use the power of determination and experience constant success.

Humility

Humility brings excellence. Humility means there is no expectation of being perfect always. So whatever is done comes naturally. There is no feeling of threat about others' opinion, but the one who is humble is able to express inner talent without any fear and expectations. So humility takes one forward towards excellence. 
Today let me be humble.

Playing my Role

 When we find things going wrong with us, we sometimes wish for a change in our role. We need to recognize the importance of our own role. Like an actor who doesn't make effort to change his role but brings perfection to his own role, we too need to concentrate on our own role. The recognition of the importance of our own role and the desire to bring excellence to it makes us free from negativity. 
Today let me make an effort to play my role in the best way.

Cleaning my Mind

Inner cleanliness creates royalty. When my thoughts are powerful I rise above mundane, ordinary actions and bring royalty to all that I do. When my thoughts are wasteful they become weak leading to negativity. Taking the time throughout the day to check on my mind and clean out the waste and negative thoughts gives me a chance to regain my own dignified approach to life. 
Today let me check and clean my mind and maintain my own dignity.

Stretching my Limits

When I think I have done enough and I can do no more, it is at this time that I have the opportunity to stretch my limits. Many people feel they have reached their limit and are unable to tolerate anything else in this world and in their lives. I am able to change my world when I stretch beyond my limited thoughts about what is possible.
 Today let me stretch my limits.

Foregiveness

When I learn the art of forgiving, I am able to be free from the burden of negative and waste thinking. So there is never any difficulty in giving correction when necessary. The mind is free from the attitudes of the past and it creates harmony in relationships even if the opinions or personalities don't match. 
Today let me learn the art of forgiveness.

Resolving Inner Battle

Spiritual development is not a battle. Although there are times when I get lost in battling against some old thought pattern or habit, I will only win when I remind myself that it is a thought pattern not my true self. To remember my original nature of peace and sweetness is to dissolve the battle scene and be truly victorious.
Today let me give up battling and accept my own innate wholeness.

Contribution

When we make positive contribution, we often expect to get some sort of recognition. Although we rarely voice this opinion, we feel hurt if others fail to show their appreciation for what we have done.  If I make sure that I enjoy whatever I do, I will no longer be concerned with gaining recognition, but will enjoy the task for its own sake.
Today let me give positive contribution without expecting appreciation in return.

Concentration

A racing mind that reacts to little things is a mind that has lost its strength. Meditation restores the concentration power to the mind. By choosing what I think about and focusing my attention on these thoughts, I begin to reclaim the power of concentration. This power allows me to wait before responding, freeing me from energy draining reactions. 
Today let me strengthen the muscle of my mind by practicing concentration.

Free from Worry

When we faced with a problem, it’s quite natural to worry. But the worry creates a great number of wasteful thoughts. We can’t find the solution, but neither can we stop worrying. A worried mind filled with negative thoughts will never find the right solution. 
Today let me be free from worry first and then only I can find the right solution.

Happiness

True nourishment is the nourishment of happiness. When the mind is happy, then automatically I find myself being energetic constantly. For this I need to make sure I give myself something that I am happy about every day.  
Today let me give myself the true nourishment of happiness.

True Respect

When I am able to see my own specialities, I am able to have respect for myself. Then I am not dependent on external sources for my inner state of mind. I remain free from all external influences, and am able to become a source of positive influence for those around me. I constantly enrich my own internal state with each thing that happens. 
Today let me look at my specialities and have true respect for myself.

Realization

You can live either by regrets or by realizations. Realization is a powerful insight into what is real, what is lasting and true. Realization comes from contemplation, quiet time spent with the self to reflect on lessons learned. This power enables me to easily overcome hurdles. Regrets come when I don’t learn the lessons from a mistake.  
Today let me live life through the power of realization.

Stillness

When thoughts and feelings become still, just as when a lake becomes still, I can see into the depths. In stillness, there is an end to thinking and the beginning of ‘seeing’ into the depths of me. Only then can I call on the power of my wisdom, the power of my loving heart, the power of my truth, to create the way I will live my life. 
Today let me empower the quality of my life by accessing the depth of myself.

Quality of Thoughts

We do want to bring about a change in our lives, but most times we are not able to do so. This is because; a lot of thought energy is getting wasted in unnecessary things. Any thought which is not brought into action in the right way is waste. So, we need to check and change such thoughts, so that there is power to change. 
Today I will check the quality of my thoughts from time to time.

Appreciate

Everything that comes will also go. This is a very deep secret of life's drama. Pleasures come and go just as fortunes come and go. In the same way, when pain comes it will also leave. To try to hang onto something forever is to condemn myself to suffer, as it will always change.
Today let me be easy as I appreciate what comes and goes.

Good Things

Each day take out some time for yourself and make it a point to read and think of good and positive things. When you continue to fill your intellect with good food in this way, there will no place for anything waste and it will become healthy eventually. 
Today let me start the practice of reading and thinking of good things.

Silence

It is when we silence the chattering of our mind that we can truly hear what is in our heart and find the still, clear purity that lies within the soul. Spiritual love carries us into the silence of our original state of being. This silence contains the power to create harmony in all relationships and the sweetness to sustain them. And it is when we are silent that we can let God into our heart and mind, filling us with peace, love and power.
Today let me draw from the reservoir of inner silence.

Filling my Mind

The mind holds the energy created by my thoughts. Whatever thoughts I have in the day will leave a residue in my mind. By the end of the day my mind might feel cloudy, dark, or filled with cheerful colors, depending on the thoughts I have had in the day. I can use my intellect as a magnifying glass to catch and focus the energy of the Spiritual Sun and burn away the negative residue in my mind. 
Today let me clean my mind by filling it with spiritual light.

Free Mind

A free mind is a mind that is open to everything and attached to nothing. A free mind is never offended and it is beyond attachments.
So, whenever I feel offended I should realize these subtle attachments that are limiting my mind, I should let go of these limitations and make my mind free again. 
Today let me free myself from limited attachments and make effort to stay beyond offense.

Inner Power

True power isn't the power I have over anyone else, it is a full stock of energy accumulated in my  own being. With such power nothing can bring me down. My inner power becomes a natural protection, not just from the ups and downs of life but also from my own Achilles' heel.
Today let me use my inner power to protect myself from my own weaknesses and from negative influences.

Spiritual Excercise

In a material-minded world, matters of spirit can be lost. Although the spirit is invisible, its impact is felt in my world. As the spirit becomes tainted with selfishness and strong materialistic desires, it loses its ability to shine brightly. When I pay attention to my inner spiritual experiences, with a deeper meaning, these experiences grow and act as a buffer between me and materialism. 
Today let me value the subtlety of my own spiritual experience.

Being in Control

Check if you are using words like, 'when things change for the better, I'll change too. I am just waiting for the things to get better' If you are using such words, it means you are letting the situation control you. Each day tell yourself, 'I have full control of the situations around me. It is when I change that things around me will change too and I definitely have the power to change things around me.' 
Today let me become the master and have full control over the situation.

Pure Heart

Have a heart so pure it can sweeten a sour mode and elevate a falling star. When my mood fluctuates up and down in accordance with my surroundings, I become a victim of my circumstances. Yet when I focus on remaining untouched by my surroundings I can bring my positive energy into any situation, transforming it immediately. 
Today let me influence my surroundings by bringing a new, positive energy.

Virtuous Life

When we ask how we can serve others around us, we discover that by making our lives inspirational and interacting with wisdom we bring benefit to others. When I think of others who inspire me, it is often because of their qualities, not their accomplishments. To live a life filled with virtues is to inspire.
Today let me live a life full of virtues so that it inspires and brings benefit to others.

http://bkwashington.org

Trust

When I treat others with dignity by trusting them, they will find their way in life just as a river finds the ocean. Unsolicited advice to others can be a subtle form of disrespect. Instead of advising others, let me trust in their ability to discover the solutions to their life. 
Today let me be there as a spiritual support for others and hold the highest vision of their potential.

http://bkwashington.org

Integrity

Integrity is staying true to myself and what I know to be true. When I apply spiritual learning directly and practically in daily life I stay true to what I know this increases the alignment between my true self and my actions. 
Today let me apply spiritual learning practically and experience personal integrity.

Love to the World

The world is in need of mothering. A mother's love is healing, comforting and empowering especially at a time when a child is lonely, sad, anxious and afraid. In a world where searching for happiness takes a soul into the accumulation of wealth or personal advancement can often demand a high cost of loss of close relationships, including family. When sadness, anxiety, loneliness and fear take over, comforting is required. 
Today let me offer the love of a mother to my world.
