Opis

Is it possible we spend as much as 90% of our day focused on things we can't change? How much time to we spend trying to change or control other people while our lives remain in complete shambles? How much of our day is spent living in anger, fear and resentment towards others? What if we made a decision to completely let go of the past and make today the first day of the rest of our lives? What if today we made a decision to only focus on things we can change? Most of us have come to realize life is short, life is difficult, and we can't take anything with us when we go. Most of us have come to realize we can't change the past, we can't guarantee the future, and today is all that we have. Most of us have come to realize we've all made mistakes and today is the first day of the rest of our lives. Agnostics and atheists alike have come to realize they can throw the dice but certainly don't determine how they land. This book is about letting go of the past, focusing on things we can change and serving by way of our gifts. This book is a testimonial of what our lives were like before we let go and the changes that took place overnight the moment we did.
