If Yesterday Sucked Will Today Likely Suck Too?
I get to decide if today will be like yesterday — or not.
Every single day I get to make new choices.
I’m not talking about what to eat, what to wear, or those types of choices. I’m talking about how to think, feel, and act.
Every. Single. Day. But that doesn’t mean I consciously, actively make choices. Often, I just go with the flow, follow my routines, and let shit happen as it will.
That’s also a choice. Albeit an inactive choice.
No two days are alike. Similar, to be sure. Alike? No. They will have differences because change is the one and only constant in the Universe.
Today might be the same temperature, air pressure, and weather that we had yesterday, But sunrise and sunset will be different — albeit slightly. And the rest of what occupies our waking hours might be extremely similar — but there will be nuanced variances.
This is why if yesterday sucked, today might suck too. Or not. That’s a choice we get to decide on.
Or not.
This always comes down to conscious awareness — mindfulness.
