Did you know that today is the first day of the rest of your life? Think about it. Yesterday’s gone. Tomorrow is only a hope and an illusion (at least for now.) Today is your reality. Today is your day to be all that you are—loving, special, gifted, talented and much more.
How will you spend today? How will you celebrate it?
I read a lesson in A Course in Miracles recently that said, "Let me remember my problems have been solved." It took me a little while to really see what this meant, but I think I get it now. God's love is the solution to all our problems. Not just some of them, but all of them. We need only remember and trust this truth.
It's tempting sometimes to feel that one problem is bigger, more difficult or less forgivable than another problem, but all problems are ultimately the same—fear. And as 1 John 4:18 reminds us, "There is no fear in love." The two cannot coexist.
That means that when we appear to be experiencing problems, we are choosing fear, and we are not remembering to trust and choose love. All that is needed is a shift of perspective to remember that God loves us, and his love is the solution to all our problems.
It’s amazing how many simple things can provide us the inspiration we need to help us get through the day when we let them. It can be anything at any given moment, depending on how open we are to being inspired in that moment.
For instance, at times, trees really inspire me. I look at them standing so tall and strong with their feet so deeply rooted.
Most of them bend but don’t break (at least not from natural causes) even in the most adverse circumstances.

Stillness is not necessarily long hours of prayer and meditation, although that’s good, too. It’s also tuning into the quiet calmness inside you underneath whatever turbulence that’s occurring in your day.

Got too much to do and don’t know where to start? I know the feeling, and it usually results in procrastination for me unless I catch it early.
The best way I’ve found to avoid procrastination when I’m feeling overwhelmed by too many projects and tasks is to make lists, breaking each project and task into smaller steps.
I know you’re busy. You’ve got work commitments, family commitments, other commitments…so much to do throughout your day. Who has time to relax? You do—even if it’s only for five minutes here and there. You’ll be amazed at what a difference it will make in your day and in your life.

Do you ever find yourself wondering where the time has gone? It seems that the older we get the more quickly the years seem to go by. But recently I learned a simple technique that will help us appreciate time now as it passes rather than feeling as though it has left us behind scratching our heads.
