Just for Today

Just for today, Lord

I will live through the next 12 hours
and not try to tackle all of life's problems at once.

I will improve my mind. I will learn something useful.
I will learn something that requires effort, thought, and concentration.

I will be agreeable. I will look my best,
speak in well-modulated voice, be courteous and considerate.

I will not find fault with friend, relative or colleague.
I will not try to change or improve anyone other than myself.

I will have a program. I might not follow it exactly, but I will have it.
I will save myself from two enemies, hurry and indecision.

I will do a good deed and keep it secret.
If anyone finds out, it won't count.

I will do two things I don't want to do, just for exercise.

I will believe in myself. I will give my best to the world
and feel confident that the world will give its best to me.
