Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close to success they were when they gave up. – Thomas Edison

Self-Esteem Promise Keeper by Jewel Diamond Taylor
Each day I promise myself to GET UP with an attitude of gratitude.
I promise to WAKE UP to my opportunities and overcome laziness, disorder and procrastination. I will BOUNCE UP from yesterday’s sorrows and regrets. I will CHEER UP and think positive. I will SPEAK UP for myself knowing that I deserve to be treated with respect and kindness. I will REACH UP to God for daily guidance.
I am willing to do whatever is necessary this day to grow, improve, and MEASURE UP to the demands, changes, and miracles in my life. Much is required of me today and I will meet the challenge. I will STEP UP to each task with enthusiasm and follow through.
Worry, anger, doubt, fear and self-criticism are a waste of my time. Self-esteem, self-acceptance and self-determination will free me from negative influences. I OPEN UP my mind to my potential and personal power to succeed and overcome obstacles.
I SEND UP my prayers of thanksgiving for life, health, shelter, food, clothing, transportation, loving relationships, and abundant income. I will manage my time, money, and emotions wisely today. I will LIVE UP to the highest and best in me.
Today is the first day of the rest of my life. I promise to seek balance in family, work, and play. I will seek progress and completion of my personal and professional goals by remember that….
“The main thing is to keep the MAIN thing the MAIN THING!“
