Plan your day
“Do or do not, there is no try” -Yoda
Basically this is what we need to tell ourselves everyday. I make lists. It is the only way that I can get anything done. If something makes it on my list then there is a strong possibility that I will accomplish it that day. If it does not make it on my list, the only way it happens is if it is embedded in my being.
Put what you hate at the top of your list. Make yourself do it. Finish it first and then put easier stuff after that. That way you don’t have to look at what you hate to do all day and dread it. You will feel proud of yourself that you accomplished something and will go on to the next thing. Then do the next thing on your list. It gets easier and easier!
Remember to add your goals to your list and not just your daily tasks. Put the important things first. Watch and see as your dreams get closer and closer to reality. Do this daily. Take Sunday off. Rest then. Live. Enjoy your life.

“A true friend protects you when you are oblivious of your own stupidity.” -Author Unknown
I once heard it said that if you can count your true friends on one hand by the time you die, you are blessed. A true saying.
What makes a true friend? It is someone that thinks for your benefit and shares a part of your heart. Someone that understands you before you even understand yourself. A true friend knows what makes you tick and speaks your “language”. Somehow, a true friend just gets you.
Where would we be without a true friend? Take a minute and think about your true friend or friends. What have they meant to you. Be grateful. Recognize that your true friends have helped to shape you and create who you are.
“A man of many friends may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer then a brother.” Proverbs 18:24
That is a true friend. A true friend tells you the truth even when it hurts. Even when you have been a complete and utter fool. A true friend looks out for you no matter what. A true friend wants you to succeed and to become the person that you are meant to become.
