Today We Will Make A Difference:

Not Failure, But Low Aim, Is

A Crime.

-Ernest Holmes

Today We Will Make A Difference.

We Will Begin By Controlling Our

Thoughts.

We Are The Product Of Our

Thoughts.

We Are To Be Happy And Hopeful.

Therefore, We Will Have Thoughts

That Are Happy And Hopeful.

We Refuse To Be Victimized By

Our Circumstances.

We Will Not Let Petty Inconvenie-

nces Such As Stoplights, Long Lines,

And Traffic Jams Be Our Master.

We Will Avoid Negativism And Go-

ssip.

Optimism Is To Be Our Companion,

And Victory Is To Be Our Hallmark.



Today We Will Make A Difference:

We Are To Be Grateful For The Twe-

nty-Four Hours That Is Before Us.

Time Is A Precious Commodity.

We Are To Refuse To Allow What

Little Time We Have T Be Contamin-

ated By Self-Pity, Anxiety, Or Boredom.

We Are To Face Each Day With The Joy

Of A Child And The Courage Of A Giant.

We Are To Drink Each Minute As Though

It Is Last.

When Tomorrow Comes, Today Will Be

Gone Forever. While It Is Here, We Are

To Use It For Loving And Giving.


Today We Will Make A Difference:


We Will Not Let Past Failures Haunt Us.



Even Though Our Life's Is Scarred With

Mistakes, We Have To Refuse To Rummage

Through Our Trash Heap Of Failures.



We Have To Admit Them.

We Have To Correct Them.



We Will Press On, Victoriously.

No Failure Is Fatal.

It's Ok To Stumble... We Will Get Up.



It's Ok To Fail... We Will Rise Again.



Today We Will Make A Difference:



Spend Time With Those You Love.

Your Spouse, Your Children, Your Family.



A Man Can Own The World But Be Poor

For The Lack Of Love.

A Man Can Own Nothing And Yet Be

Wealthy In Relationships.



Today We Will Spend At Least Five Minu-

tes With The Significant People In Our

World.

Five Quality Minutes Of Talking Or Hugg-

ing Or Thanking Or Listening.

Five Undiluted Minutes With Our Mate, Chi-

ldren, And Friend.

Today We Will Make A Difference.



+ A Bible Verse +



….Forgetting What Is Behind And Straining

Toward What Is Ahead, I Press On Toward

The Goal To Win The Prize For Which God

Has Called Me Heavenward In Christ Jesus.

-Philippians 3:13-14



: A Word :



Spend Five Minutes Listening And Giving

Total Eye Contact To Each Member Of Your

Immediate Family Or Those Living In Your

Home.
