Photo by TomRavenThe great thing about my pot of gold being at the end of the rainbow is that I know my pot of gold is here already. Where do rainbows end? Right here on this earth! Not in some imaginary magical place!

I need only to allow myself to see my reward and enjoy it to its fullest. I have the power to take advantage of it any time I want to.

The beauty of life is all around me. I can discover it by living in the moment and cherishing every blessing bestowed upon me.

Prosperity lies in living a fulfilling life. When I am happy and fulfilled, I feel like the richest person in the world! I know I am wealthy beyond belief in the things that matter the most.

Even so, there are times when extra money can make my life even better. This, too, is within my reach if I allow it to be so. If I want more money, I can take action to bring in more money.

If I desire a better job, I can find a way to make my skills more valuable in my field so a better position is possible for me. If I want a new career, I can learn what I need. If I want to start my own business, I can prepare appropriately and take action to make it happen.

Yes, my pot of gold awaits me, right here, and it is up to me to discover it!

Today, my plan is to take decisive action toward making my goals a reality.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. Can I feel the riches from my pot of gold in everyday moments?
2. How can I let myself discover the beauty that’s all around me?
3. What action can I take, today, to move toward the life I desire?

I am free from yesterday’s mistakes or tomorrow’s responsibilities. I am in the now.

Yesterday was in the past and tomorrow may never come. What I have is today, now, the present moment, and I make the most of each and every one of them.

If I made a mistake yesterday, I know I cannot undo it. I avoid wasting my time worrying or fretting about it. Today, I can use what I learned from it to move forward toward my goals. Yesterday it may have been a mistake, but today, it is new knowledge.

I make goals for the future and plan for tomorrow, but today is what matters. Today’s tasks are the only ones I concern myself with, and I focus on this day’s accomplishments. This makes each day a productive one and keeps me on track.

Living in the moment gives me the most focus when I am working on a task and the most pleasure when I’m not.

The joy of life is found in the present moment and I allow myself to receive all of it. Yes, I take time to stop and smell the roses because the roses are what fill that moment when I am near them. I take in their beauty with all my senses and enjoy it to its fullest.

I strive to let the beauty of the moment envelop me in its caress. I choose the joy!

Today, I plan to let myself discover the power of each moment and experience the benefits of truly living in the here and now.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. How much time do I waste worrying about what happened yesterday or what tomorrow will bring?
2. When was the last time I truly enjoyed the power of a moment?
3. How can I remind myself to focus on the present moment?
