“Having a great day should come from a decision we make no matter our circumstance.”

 Although we can’t control every circumstance in our lives, we can control our response to them.  Can we really have a great day everyday?  YES!

Allow me to share with you what has worked for me.

Literally, as I get up every morning to quiet the alarm, I audibly thank God for the day.  Having this thankful attitude helps me to overcome any negative emotions, such as feeling tired or sick.

Even though these emotions can be true, they don’t need to determine whether we have a great day or not.  Developing this habit has helped me to get off to the right start each and every day.

As I often say, “today will be a great day, like yesterday and tomorrow.”

Lord, thank You for this day of life, love and happiness.

“This is the day that the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24
