"Life is a constant and patient teacher. Lessons come to us and return to us for our greater mastery. As we acknowledge and appreciate our gains, we minimize our losses. Focusing on our strengths, our weaknesses slip away as we build on on bedrock of right action. All lives are a mixture of gain and loss. As I choose to acknowledge the negative while focusing on the positive, I acquire a steadfast foothold of reality. Allowing for improvement while not expecting perfection, I am a work in progress. By embracing a willingness to learn as well as an attention to lessons learned already, I find myself both healthy and humble. I am right-sized and right-minded. A resilient optimism holds away.
Today, I choose to practice alert attention to the lessons life is teaching. I consciously strive to see my options and choose wisely. I avoid the pitfalls of the past. I act decisively yet with discretion. I am a student of life." - J. Cameron
