0:00.0	Well, hello there. It's Morgan Harper-Nichols here. I'm an artist and a writer, and this is a space where I turn the lens on various topics and subjects in hopes to learn something new or see something in a new way. Today's episode is called Friday Motivation, brand new thinking for a brand new day. Thanks for listening. I'm Morgan Harper-Niggles.
0:25.0	Slowly but surely, you're beginning to realize that the past will not have a permanent effect on your
0:33.8	life. Even though you know more about the days behind you than you know about the days
0:40.7	before you, this remains true. This present moment is about something so much more than comparing
0:49.5	the present to the future. This present moment is a space to practice hope, no matter the unknowns that lie before you.
0:59.2	For this moment right here will never be here again. Soon this moment will become a past moment.
1:08.0	Soon this day will be a day behind you. So before it becomes another past moment,
1:16.2	how can you allow this moment to be different than the others? What can you do today

1:46.6	a month ago, or even an hour ago. And if someone else says, hmm, you seem a little different these
1:53.7	days, or you're changing course again, you're allowed to say, yes, I am, and nothing else.
2:01.5	You do not have to explain yourself.
2:03.9	You are allowed to change course.
2:06.6	You are free to go off script, and you are free to be excited about it.
2:13.3	You are allowed to declare with confidence.
2:16.6	No, I am not who I was yesterday.
2:21.1	And I have this moment right now to try something in a new way.
2:27.1	No, I do not know how tomorrow will go, but I am at home in grace.
2:33.5	Grace that frees me to be who I was meant to be right here
2:38.0	in the present moment, not attached to who I was yesterday. Now there will be thoughts and maybe even
