Life is waiting for you each day and you have to
prepare for each challenge alongthe way towards success.
It's not simple, but it can bedone.
Welcome to my Common SenseMotivation episodes.
I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.
Today matters, not yesterday.
We spend way too much timestaring at the past, replaying

(00:22):
what went wrong, overthinkingwhat we should have done,
regretting mischances, mistakesand moments we can't get back.
But let me say this loud andclear yesterday is over.
It's done.
Even if it was just the last 24hours ago, it's still the past
and you can't drive forwardwhile stuck looking in the

(00:44):
rearview mirror.
If you want to win really winin your life, your business and
your relationships it startswith what you do right now.
Not what happened last week,not what you failed at last year
, not what someone said ordidn't say about you.
Today is where champions arebuilt, right here, right now.

(01:07):
You've got challenges.
Good Challenges build strength.
They show what you're made ofand guess what You're made of
more than the pain behind you.
The truth is, the futuredoesn't ask what you've been
through.
It asks what you're willing todo today.
So stop giving your energy towhat's gone, stop letting your

(01:28):
past run your present.
You've got too much greatnessahead to keep dragging around
what's behind.
Focus on the challenge in frontof you.
Meet it head on.
Give it your full power, yourfull heart, your full attention.
Because if you want to leadheart, your full attention.

it, because in many ways, itdoes the best part.
You don't need to be perfect,you don't need to have all the
answers.
You just need to show up, takeaction and refuse to quit.
Let yesterday go.
