Wise Words From Emerson

Last Update: December 29, 2010

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

I like that a lot. He was a wise man. transcendentalist, individualist. Big on self reliance. Don't hear of him as much as I used to, so nice to see him mentioned.

Nice. I even take this a step further and forget about any mess-ups I have no control over as soon as I can after they happen... no point generating negative energy over something that I can't change, no matter how annoying it seems at the time!
