How to Live Each Day... Part Two

So how should we aim to live our lives each day? Well, I believe I have the beginnings of an idea. Granted, it probably only makes sense in my head, and when I write it out on paper it will appear to be word-vomit... but I will give it a shot anyway.

We should live everyday like we would do it again the exact same way.

Yahh? Yahh? Awesome, right? Just kidding. It doesn't sound too exciting on the surface, but stay with me. I think it might have some potential - boring potential, but still potential nonetheless.

Think back upon your day today. Did you do anything today that you would do differently tomorrow? Anything you said wrong or did wrong or reacted wrong? Any choices that you would like to take back? Any decisions that you would like to make instead of something? Think about it. Consider if you would do anything differently then what you did today. Maybe you want to do something better. Maybe you want to stop doing something. Whatever it is, there are things in life that we want to improve...and then improve some more... and then add... and then tweak... and then refine... and then refine... and then....

The end goal is this: you can reach a point where you would live each day as if you would do it exactly the same if you had the chance to do it again. Maybe you are thinking, "Oh, but if I could do yesterday over again, I would do it totally different!" Well, then, good. Do it different. Whatever you are thinking, just do that today. If you want to live your life different, then do it. Do it today. And try to get to a point where you wouldn't have to say that. Get to a point where you would do yesterday exactly the same if you had the chance. You wouldn't change anything because you are so in tune with yourself, your relationship with God, and your relationship with others. The goal is to get to a point where you are doing, saying, thinking, acting, and being exactly what you want to be, what God wants you to be, and what others need you to be - so much that you wouldn't change yesterday at all. You would do it all again exactly the same.


So this is my encouragement and challenge to you: LIVE EACH DAY AS IF YOU WOULD DO IT AGAIN THE EXACT SAME WAY.
