“God, thank you for waking me up this morning. I want to embrace every day, however limited my day may be, as a gift from God. I want to live this day to its fullest. I know there are things I can no longer do. I know I am facing daily limitations. But I want to focus on what I can do, not on what I cannot do. So help me God. I know this day will never be repeated. I know I cannot live it over again. Help me to live it to its fullest.” KnowsWantMayI CanHelpingCan DoMorningFocusEmbraceLimitationHelp MeThis DayWakingGift From GodGod Help MeWaking Me Up Author:Ed Dobson
“That kind of friendship doesn't just materialize at the end of the rainbow one morning in a soft-focus Hollywood haze. For it to last this long, and at such close quarters, some serious work had gone into it. Ask any ice-skater or ballet dancer or show jumper, anyone who lives by beautiful moving things: nothing takes as much work as effortlessness.” KindLongEndsShowsLastsBeautifulMovingAsksMorningGoneFocusSeriousHollywoodIceDancerLive ByQuartersBalletRainbowBallet DancerHazeSkaterJumpersSerious Work Author:Tana French

“Sometimes I train in the middle of the night, all on my own. Can't sleep, don't want to sleep, get up, go to the gym, work. This is early for me, being here at half ten in the morning, this is really early, and I'm only here because I screwed up yesterday and kept you hanging around. Other times I'll call up my wrestling coach, or my jiu jitsu coach, or my deep-tissue guy, and want to really focus on one part of what I do. I train in all these different disciplines.” WantDifferentSometimesNightGuyMy OwnSleepHalfMorningFocusMiddleDisciplineTenTrainCoachesYesterdayGet UpGymWrestlingTissuesMiddle Of The NightScrewed UpCan't SleepHanging AroundJiu JitsuWant To Sleep Author:Conor McGregor
“I hit my knees every morning and every night to give thanks for being alive and all the blessings I have. And in the middle of chaos, it's been suggested to me to stop and truly look around, notice the sky, the trees, the grass, and realize you're part of it all, which is hard when you really want to focus on what you think is bothering you. However, one of the smartest things I do is check in with my awesome wife, who is really good at screwing my head back on when needed.” ThinkingWantGivingLooksHardNightRealizingMorningFocusAliveWifeTreeSkyMiddleNeededBlessingChaosChecksThanksBotherGrassKneesEvery NightEvery MorningBothering You Author:Patrick Fabian
