10 Rules for Starting a New Day

1. TODAY I WILL NOT STRIKE BACK:
If someone is rude, impatient, or unkind, I will not respond in a like manner.

2. TODAY I WILL ASK GOD TO BLESS MY "ENEMY":
If I come across someone who treats me harshly or unfairly, I will quietly ask God to bless that individual. I understand the "enemy" could be a family member, neighbor, co-worker, or a stranger.

3. TODAY I WILL BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT I SAY:
I will carefully choose and guard my words, being certain that I do not spread gossip.

4. TODAY I WILL GO THE EXTRA MILE:
I will find ways to help share the burden of another person.

5. TODAY I WILL FORGIVE:
I will forgive any hurts or injuries that come my way.

6. TODAY I WILL DO SOMETHING NICE FOR SOMEONE, BUT I WILL NOT DO IT SECRETLY:
I will reach out anonymously and bless the life of another.

7. TODAY I WILL TREAT OTHERS THE WAY I WISH TO BE TREATED:
I will practice the golden rule - "Do unto others as I would have them do unto me" - with everyone I encounter.

8. TODAY I WILL RAISE THE SPIRITS OF SOMEONE I DISCOURAGED:
My smile, my words, my expression of support can make a difference to someone who is wrestling with life.

9. TODAY I WILL NURTURE MY BODY:
I will eat less, eat only healthy foods, and thank God for my body.

10. TODAY I WILL GROW SPIRITUALLY:
I will spend a little more time in prayer today, begin reading something spiritual or inspirational, and find a quiet place at some point during the day.

"Gandhigiri Jai Ho....

Really good! I would surely try to follow it. But, frankly speaking, hard to digest. I would like to keep it as my wallpaper so that I make sure I follow it. Can anybody please elaborate on the enemy (family, co-workers...) part?

Thanks, keep posting."

Wonderful posting. I realised after reading that I keep praying in similar ways every morning before i start my day. Thank God for such an understanding which He wants us to have francis
