Today's thought from the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Always think of what you have to do as easy and it will become so11.
-- Emile Corie

How
we think about the activities before us is very important. If we think
cleaning the garage is hard, dirty, and no chance for fun, that's just
how it will feel. We'll be tired before we even begin. However, if we
approach it like a treasure hunt, expecting to rediscover some
long-forgotten treasures, we'll enjoy the task. In fact, it will feel
like a game.
The thoughts we carry in our minds determine whether our tasks are fun or not. What good fortune it is that we can control those thoughts. If we approach an assignment for school or a job believing that we're able to do it, that it's not too hard for us, we'll finish with ease. Our thoughts determine our successes. In this way, our lives are in our own hands.

How much better can I make my life today?
