Let Today Be the Day You Give Up Who You’ve Been for Who You Can Become
“Every day, think as you wake up, ‘Today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.’”
—Dalai Lama
“Things do not change. We change.”
—Henry David Thoreau
Where you are is a result of who you were, but where you end up depends entirely on who you choose to be from this moment forward.
This is your time. Don’t put off creating and experiencing the life—happiness, health, wealth, success, and love—that you truly want and deserve for another day. As my mentor Kevin Bracy always urged: “Don’t wait to be great.” If you want your life to improve, you have to improve yourself first. Stay committed to completing your Miracle Morning 30-Day Journey so that you can continue becoming the person you need to be to create everything you want for your life and help others do the same.
We Are Elevating the Consciousness of Humanity Together
When I first began practicing the Miracle Morning, it was a selfish pursuit. I was struggling financially and needed a solution. I wasn’t thinking about anybody else.
However, over the years, and especially since becoming a parent, I’ve realized that doing the Miracle Morning is as much about how it enables me to show up for others as it is about how it enables me to show up for myself.
Beginning each day with the S.A.V.E.R.S. helps me to be a better father, a better husband, and a better all-around human being. It enables me to be more patient, loving, and intentional in everything I do. For example, I have affirmations for each of my most important relationships, including my “Super Awesome Fun Dad” affirmations that remind me how I’m committed to showing up for my kids. I also read my “Husband of Ursula’s Dreams” affirmations each day, which articulate and remind me of how I’m committed to showing up for my wife. I have similar affirmations to help me optimize how I show up for all people.
So, as you begin your Miracle Morning journey and integrate the S.A.V.E.R.S. into your daily life, I encourage you to keep this in mind. Consider how you can incorporate those you love, and those you lead, into your Miracle Mornings. Consider the impact that becoming the best version of yourself will have on others. On a grander scale, consider the impact of millions of us around the world doing the same.
Remember, the Miracle Morning Mission is to elevate the consciousness of humanity, one morning (and one person) at a time. Every morning, you are that one person. By elevating your own consciousness—becoming more aware and intentional about how your thoughts, words, and actions impact you and others—you are quite literally elevating the consciousness of humanity.
Thank you so much for caring enough about yourself and others to wake up each day and dedicate time to fulfilling your potential.
With love and gratitude,
