NEWSPOT DAILY TONIC: Every sunset is an opportunity to reset By Bishop Duke Akamisoko

. Every sunrise begins with new eyes. Isn’t it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet? Every moment is a fresh beginning. We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. The old skin has to be shed before the new one can come. This is a new day. A new beginning. And things can change for better. The chief beauty about time is that you cannot waste it in advance. The next week, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you, as perfect, as unspoiled, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment in all your life. You can turn over a new leaf every hour if you choose. The beginning is always today. You’re off to great places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting, So get on your way!
We must realize that every day is a fresh start for us That every sunrise is a new chapter in our lives waiting to be written. What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything? Each new day is a blank page in the diary of your life. The secret of success is in turning that diary into the best story you possibly can. Holding on is believing that there’s only a past; letting go is knowing that there’s a future. The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide you’re not going to stay where you are. Forgiveness says you are given another chance to make a new beginning. It’s a wise man who understands that every day is a new beginning. That first book is already closed, ended, and tossed into the seas; this new book is newly opened, has just begun! A fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Be willing to be a beginner every single morning. Stay away from what might have been, and look at what can be. It’s a funny thing about life, once you begin to take note of the things you are grateful for, you begin to lose sight of the things that you lack. Your present circumstances don’t determine where you can go they merely determine where you start. A time comes when you need to stop waiting for the man you want to become and start being the man you want to be. Nothing is predestined. The obstacles of your past can become the gateways that lead to new beginnings. Some of us think holding on makes us strong, but sometimes it is letting go. Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect. Life is a progress, and not a station. It’s never too late to become who you want to be. I hope you live a life that you’re proud of, and if you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start over. Challenges are gifts that force us to search for a new center of gravity. Don’t fight them. Just find a new way to stand. The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. When the winds of change blow, some people build walls and others build windmills. Success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It’s the courage to continue that counts. Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently. The magic in new beginnings is truly the most powerful of them all. You must learn to stop thinking in terms of beginnings and endings, successes and failures, and begin to treat everything in your life as a learning experience instead of a proving one. No matter how hard the past is, you can always begin again. The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing that we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down, but the staying down.
Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending. That last page turned is a perfect excuse to write a whole new book. You are never too old to start over. Every day is a chance to make changes to create the life we want. Everything begins at the beginning, and quite often the beginning begins when you shift your mind in a new direction. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
The best things in life comes with the biggest prize !!
