Look to this day!
For it is life, the very life of life.
In its brief course
Lie all the verities and realities of existence:
The bliss of growth
The glory of action
The splendor of beauty,
For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today well-lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore, to this day!
Such is the salutation of the dawn.

Rule #1
Shut the iron doors on the past and the future. Live in Day-tight compartments.
