1 . The Most Important Day of Your Life

What’s the most important day of your life? The answer to that question is simple — Today.

    1     You can’t do anything about things that have already happened, and trying to live in the future will take your focus away from the present. So the helpful strategy for anyone is to make the most of the moment that is right in front of us.

Doing our best today may make things easier for us later on, or at least help us to deal with whatever situation we are in.     2     We will still be dealing with the same challenges tomorrow.

Each morning I ask myself what I can do to make today memorable.     3     In Hebrew school we were asked what we had done to help other people the previous week. Did we help an older person cross the street? Did we encourage someone who had a promising idea?    4     All of these things represent a worthy deed because they involve doing something to help someone else.

Even if today is not that meaningful for you, something you do for someone else may be very meaningful for them. You never know how much a good deed for someone else will impact that person. The greatest meaning that today brings may not be for you, it may be for someone else.

    5     You can deal with tomorrow next week, or next year when it gets here.
