A leader is best when people barely know he exists,

I am like a newborn.
I have what I have today;
I have my fingers, my toes,
some people in my life,

perhaps a cherished memory,
but only a dream - nothing more.
I will make all decisions and actions based solely
on what I have today as a starting point."

Regrets and their cousins, resentments,
are a huge cause of self-inflicted suffering.
Sometimes it takes years of psychotherapy
to gain freedom from regrets about what you did or did not do,

to put the past in the past where it belongs.
However, sometimes a simple symbolic act can help immeasurably
to grant ourselves freedom from the past.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

My actions are my own and I am, singularly,
responsible for what I see, say, feel and exert.

If you have never experienced the practice
of daily journaling, give it a try. I highly recommend it.
