Ten Rules of a Good Day

---

1. TODAY I WILL NOT STRIKE BACK:

• If someone is rude, if someone is impatient, if some is 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, neighbour, co-worker or a stranger
3. TODAY I WILL BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT I SAY:

4. TODAY I WILL GO THE EXTRA MILE:

5. TODAY I WILL FORGIVE:

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 WILSH TO BE TREATED:

· I will practice the golden rule - "Do unto others as I would have them do unto me" - with everyone I encounter.
