“Finish every day and be done with it. For manners and for wise living it is a vice to remember. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it well and serenely, and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day for all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on the rotten yesterdays.”
― The Letters of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Volume 2, 1836 - 1841

“When we focus on positive thoughts, we attract positive experiences into our field of awareness. Conversely, when we dwell on negativity, we invite more negativity into our experience.
This isn’t to say we should ignore challenges or pretend everything’s hunky-dory when it obviously isn’t. Don’t be an ostrich and bury your head in the sand when shit’s hitting the fan.
Rather, the idea is to choose to approach life—even its trying moments—with an upbeat and proactive mindset, believing in our ability to overcome obstacles and create a better future … at least for ourselves.”
