| Just as I know that every day the
sun will rise and set in its regular routine, I also know that
each new dawn brings tremendous possibilities for change. In
nature, no day is exactly like the day before.
In the same way, even when my life seems routine, I realize
the potential is there for me to change whatever I desire.
It is healthy for my mind and spirit to change every day
routines. Change keeps my mind sharp and my spirit
energized. When I need to complete the same tasks day after day, I can
still accomplish them in different ways so I can avoid getting
into a rut.
For example, my daily household chores can be done in any
order I choose, so I change the order around each day. Some
days I dance while I do them and other days I sing. Sometimes
I listen to classical music and other times I rock out!
Mindless chores also give me the chance to think through
new ideas and create action plans for achieving my goals.
After all, do I really need to think about garbage when I
take out the trash? Do I really need to focus on dirt when
I vacuum?

I realize that the only way I
can get stuck in the same routines and stagnate is if I allow
myself to do so. It is so easy to spice up the mundane, all
I have to do is take swift action!
When life gets boring, I can expand my knowledge instead
of watching TV. I can learn a new hobby, practice a new skill,
or go on an adventure. Each of these changes sparks new passions
and opens up even more opportunities for further fulfillment.
Today,
I see life as different from any day that has come before. I can grab hold of any opportunities I may have missed
because I am willing to be adaptable.
