Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself:
I,
not events,
have the power to make me happy or unhappy today.
I can choose which it shall be.
Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet.
I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it.
– Groucho Marx
Everything I really need to know in life I learned from my children and Groucho Marx.
This is something I’ve been wanting to scream in the faces of a lot of people. Sadly it’s a lesson that can’t be taught, only realized.
Give it a try.
It’s the easiest and most difficult thing you’ll ever do. Undoubtedly the most powerful.
Your whole life will change. I promise.
