I PROMISE to look in the mirror everyday and FIND new potential, new ventures, greater motivation… I will turn a blind eye to the physical flaws that I may feel hinder my true beauty, and cause me to be more harsh and critical of myself.-By Elizabeth Mucci
I SEE my strengths, talents, hopes and desires to be better, and SEE to it that I act upon those things.
I ACKNOWLEDGE that I am a beautiful young woman that has only just started her journey. I am excited about every opportunity that presents itself on my daily path.
I DO my best each day to be an example to each person that may come in contact with me. I carry myself in a manner that will only generate positive thoughts, feeling and conversation.
I RECOGNIZE when I have fallen short of my goals but am not hard on myself. Instead, I make a more valiant effort to try harder tomorrow.
I ENJOY every moment that I experience; the good, bad, happy and sad, the stressful, overwhelming, unpleasant and uncomfortable. And I do this because I know that these moments are helping mold me into the woman I want to be, and because I am choosing to let them effect my life, as well as the lessons I want to learn from them.
“ May I invite you to rise to the great potential within you. But don’t reach beyond your capacity. Don’t set goals beyond your capacity to achieve, don’t feel guilty or dwell on thoughts of failure. Don’t compare yourself with others. Do the best YOU can, and the Lord will provide the rest.” -President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Liz's Daily Anthem
Recently my little sister has been working on a new blog. As she's gotten closer to finishing it, she's allowed our family to take a sneak peek. Anyway, I was poking around on her site the other day and stumbled on her daily anthem. Basically she just sat down one day and decided to write out a pledge to her self that she could strive to live by. It really struck home for me so I decided (after asking her permission) to share it with you today. Enjoy!

What a great mantra! My favorite part is "I RECOGNIZE when I have fallen short of my goals but am not hard on myself. Instead, I make a more valiant effort to try harder tomorrow."
ReplyDeleteI think that is so important and something I really need to remember. I have a tendency to beat myself up when I fall short of my goals but that's not very productive is it? Instead I'm going to take a page out of Liz's book and promise to try harder tomorrow. : ) love it!
