Live just one day at a time.

When you apply what you’ve learned yesterday to your tomorrow's choices and actions, you move forward not backward.  You become stronger and wiser.  It’s not easy, but it’s worth it in the end. Do your best in the present moment and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.  And remember that no matter what’s happening, you can efficiently fight the battles of just today.  It’s only when you add the battles of those two abysmal eternities, yesterday and tomorrow, that life gets overwhelmingly complicated.  It’s necessary to let yourself live just one day at a time – just today – just right here, right now.  And do the best you can in it. 

Yesterday, you’ve been hurt; you’ve gone through numerous ups and downs that have made you who you are today. These happenings add up to something today and help you continue to elaborate future plans for tomorrow.
