It might be that certain days of the week are better than others for accomplishing specific self-actualization goals, but the reality is that the best day on the week for working on most goals is…

…the day we are living in right now, today.

Obviously it cannot be yesterday, yet how often we tend to revisit yesterday with “if only”  or, “I should have.”

Intellectually we know we cannot change the past, but we still enjoy revisiting it.

And for procrastinators, among whom I include myself, tomorrow can be very appealing.

But, as Abraham Lincoln is reported to have said, “You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.”

Each of us knows all of this; we just need to remind ourselves of the true importance of today.
