Happier tomorrow.

Make a start now; it is never too late
to do anything. That is what we are
told by our elders when they feel we
are lost and our goal seems nowhere
in sight. In a different context, we
also have the saying that it is better
late than never.
It makes great sense here to recall
American poet Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow: “Ah, nothing is too late,
till the tired heart shall cease to palpitate.”
We fail to go on a noble mission
or give it up soon after starting
because of our lack of confidence in
ourselves. Belief or confidence in
oneself creates a kind of magical
power within you that makes you
see even the most difficult task as
being possible.
Belief makes you gain the power
and the ability to start on a difficult
journey, to go through it and also
complete it successfully. It helps you
take the most important step — the
first step — towards your mission
in life that makes life’s journey on
this planet a meaningful and purposeful
one.
Every morning gives you a chance
for a new beginning — to do better
and live happier. There is no end to
doing better to make living purposeful.
Otherwise, as American entrepreneur,
author and motivational
speaker Jim Rohn says, “Either you
run the day, or the day runs you.”
One must keep in mind, always,
that the journey of life is laden
with thorns. One has to get ready
to face the difficulties on the way
as an inevitable part of the journey.
As Henry Ford, the founder of Ford
Motor Company, said, “When everything
seems to be going against you,
remember that the airplane takes
off against the wind, not with it.”
So, it is within us to make it happen;
after all life will be as good or
as bad as we make it.
