Good morning and welcome to the Increase Your Impact podcast. Justin Suu here,

episode 1682. Today we're talking about the importance of focusing on today. Today is the only

thing you could do anything about. Today is the only day you could begin to lay the foundations of a better future.

Today is the only day you can strengthen your relationships. You can work to sharpen your craft.

You can change or make incremental changes on things that you may have done poorly

in the past today. We're each given 86,400 seconds a day. And the quality of your life, the

quality of your performance, the quality of your performance, the quality of your leadership,

the quality of your relationships will greatly depend on how you use those 86,400 seconds today.

So this day, take a look at it as creating a masterpiece.

Coach John Wooden said something to that effect where the importance of making each day a

masterpiece.

And why not start with today?

Why not make today a fresh start, a clean slate, a new page, regardless of what's happened in the past,

good or bad, make today the beginning of the rest of your life. And it starts by making good

decisions in the morning. When this episode is over, what are you going to do about it?

Here's to maximizing. Those 86,400 seconds you have,

to being fully present, to be in the best version of yourself

because you're going to get pushed into the future, worrying about the future,

you're going to get pulled into beating up on yourself about the past.

Whenever that happens, number one,

know that it's normal, it's human, and then bring yourself right back to where you can be the

best version of yourself, which is today, right here, right now.
