Successful Day, Successful Life

Good Morning Sunshines! “Instead of trying to live a successful life, aim to live a successful day.” – Jessica O Matthews. WOW! I heard her say this on a podcast and it stopped me in my tracks. That is so true. Yes, of course we want to have a successful life, but if we focused on making each day what it could be we wouldn’t have to worry so much about the end result… it would work itself out.

My grandparents were farmers and toward the end of my grandpa’s life I asked him if he would do anything different. He said that every day he did his job and he did it well. At night he made peace with the man upstairs, just in case he didn’t wake back up. He went to bed knowing he did all he could have done for that day. He gave every day everything he had.

That’s what I want to do. I want to make sure every day is a successful day so I can have a successful life. We don’t have to be millionaires or Mother Teresa to make a difference. We can change things in our every day life. Find The Good In Your Life one day at a time.

  1. I was just having a conversation with my mom about taking things a day at a time; managing things as they come. I am a “ok, what’s next?” type of gal. It’s such a challenge for me to just make the most of my day and resist the urge to focus on what’s next. Great post!

    1. I understand all too well. Learning to live in the moment and not worry about what’s next is easier said then done some times. However, being self aware is awesome. It makes everything easier. Thank you for your input.
