Today I will seek not only to know, but to understand.

In a world that is full of information, true understanding remains a rare and precious treasure.

The knowledge and information I collect is valuable. But the understanding I refine from that knowledge is the true treasure.

Information tells me what has happened. Understanding enables me to know how to respond and move forward.

The effort I put into understanding brings great value to my life and my world.

I will listen, learn, question, experience, think and understand. I will do the work that turns ordinary facts into precious treasure.

Today I will truly consider what’s really important to me. I will look past those fleeting concerns and activities that seem so urgent, and look into what I truly care about.

I will generously give quality, focused time to the special people in my life. I will accept them for who they are and listen without judgment to what they have to say.

I will peacefully consider the goodness and value in my life, and feel the warmth that those thoughts bring.

I will treasure the moments of this day. And consider each moment as an opportunity to give more value and support to what’s truly important.

I will keep myself connected to what’s truly important. From that perspective, I will find great fulfillment in all that I do…

and remember what’s truly important.

My doubts may feel strong and compelling, but I am much stronger. After all, I have the ability to take action.

My doubts require a certain specific scenario in order to make any sense. I, however, can work my way to a whole new scenario in which those old doubts will have no validity.

Every action I take is a triumph over my doubts. I will start small if I have to, build up to bigger, more consequential actions, and those doubts will surely and steadily fade away.

My doubts get all of their energy from me. And I don’t ever have to give them any more of it.

Instead, I will put my energy into positive, effective action. I will put my energy into dreaming big, wonderful, meaningful dreams, then step forward and act to give those dreams life.

Even the biggest doubts are no match for the power of my passion. I will put that passion into action, and leave my doubts behind.

I am stronger than my doubt.
