Better Than Good
I am doing better than good because I clearly understand that failure is an event, not a person; that yesterday ended last night and today is my brand new day.
I am doing better than good because I have made friends with my past, am focused on the present and optimistic about my future.
I am doing better than good because I know that success doesn't make me and failure doesn't break me.
I am doing better than good because I am filled with faith, hope and love; I live without anger, greed, guilt, envy or thoughts of revenge.
I am doing better than good because I am mature enough to delay gratification and shift my focus from my rights to my responsibilities.
I am doing better than good because I understand that others can give me pleasure, but genuine happiness comes when I do things for others.
I am doing better than good because I love the unlovable, give hope to the hopeless, friendship to the friendless and encouragement to the discouraged.
I am doing better than good because I can look back in forgiveness, forward in hope, down in compassion and up with gratitude.
May you do better than good in the new year.
