WHY TODAY MATTERS?
WHY TODAY MATTERS?
"Today is not just any ordinary day. Today is a day that matters. Today you will have the choice to make a difference in your life and those around you. Today you will have the choice to smile rather than frown, be grateful rather than selfish, lift up rather than put down, accept rather than reject and love rather than hate. Today you will have the choice of seeking hope for the future or remain in the hopelessness of the past. Today you have the choice to laugh or cry. Both will make you feel better. Today you will have the undivided attention of the King of the Universe. At that time you can ask Him anything you want. You can ask for help, plead for a friend or just enjoy His presence. It all depends on you. Whichever you choose, today matters. Make the choice to make it a day worth living. And don't forget, tomorrow is another day."

Before reading, look at the title, pictures and the first couple of lines of the text. Look for clues to help you predict what kind of text it is and what it is about.
Read the text to get the general idea. Ignore words you don’t know.
Read the text again. Try to work out the meaning of important new words. Use a dictionary if you can't.

Be kind with yourself
Cultivate Your Inner Advocate. We’re all familiar with the inner critic. It’s that little voice in our heads that’s quick to judge and is always ready with a put down. Well, it’s time for your inner critic to meet your inner advocate.
And who exactly is this inner advocate? It’s another voice in your head: the one that defends you. When your inner critic comes at you with ridicule and scorn, your inner advocate jumps in and presents arguments on your behalf. While your inner critic is against you, your inner advocate is for you.
Be kind to yourself by cultivating your inner advocate (mine wears Armani suits and carries a black leather Gucci brief case).

The first step is to make the problem specific;

Why do champagne bubbles rise from the bottom of a glass?
The bubbles are filled with carbon dioxide (CO2), a gas 800 times less dense than surrounding liquid. Molecules of this gas accumulating in imperfections in the glass and start to form a bubble, whose low density supplies enough buoyancy to break off and float towards the surface. In the process they run into more molecules, making the bubble even bigger and more buoyant, and accelerating its ascent.

Energize yourself in the morning.
As much as we like to think we have control and autonomy when it comes to our feelings, the truth is that momentum is a huge factor.
Morning routines have been a keystone habit of content and successful people throughout history, and for good reason; starting your day with a spiritual practice, a physical practice, and a healthy breakfast may not seem like much, but compounded over years, it can make all the difference in the world to your well-being.
Manufacturing
Manufacturing is the transformation of raw materials into finished products. It happens in factories, plants (= large factories) and mills (used for specific industries, eggs steel and textiles).
The word 'manufacturing' is often associited with industries like autos, chemicals, iron and steel. These industries, based on mass production, were once major employers in areas like America's'Rust Belt' (llinnois, lndiana, Michigan, Ohio) and
England's 'West Midlands' - regions associated with readly available coal, labour and inland waterways (= canals). In the period after the Second World War these industries provided jobs for large numbers of blue-collar workers, working in secure, well-paid jobs and protected by unions. During the 1970s and 80s these industries becames unprofitable in America and Europe. Production methods were increasingly outdated, and this type of heavy industries

Be honest with yourself.
Discontentment often comes from what psychologists call cognitive dissonance—incongruence between two conflicting ideas or emotions in your mind.
You can greatly reduce this by just accepting, admitting, and experiencing the emotions that are passing through you.
If you are angry, be angry; if you are sad, be sad; if you are joyful, be joyful. When we try to actively change or deny present emotions, they become meta-emotions: guilt about sadness, anger about fear, fear about unhappiness. Then they become toxic.
Vocabulary practice: medium
Medium: in the middle of between two sizes, lengths, temperatures, etc. ; average.
Vocabulary practice: meeting
Meeting: an organized occasion when a number of people come together in order to discuss or decided something.
Go out in nature.
A lot of the time our worries and concerns are largely linked to our environment—both immediately, such as the construction noise outside our bedroom, and peripherally, such as when an advert on T.V. reminds you of a past failure.
Nature allows you to completely unplug, allowing yourself the space to experience relaxation and acceptance.

Get out of your comfort zone.
Getting out of your comfort zone is good not only for your sense of self-worth, but it also gives your brain a huge adrenaline dump and a flush of endorphins.
You’ll know when you’re getting out of your comfort zone when you feel anxious before doing something, but you do it anyway, because you know it is beneficial to you in the long run. Afterward, you’ll often feel a huge relief and sense of self-worth at having done something you were scared to do.
Depending on your own situation you might find this in traveling to new places, meeting new people, trying new activities (public speaking, scuba diving, bungee jumping etc.) or even just meditating through negative emotions.

Look after your body.
From muscular tension that can trap emotions to serotonin production and bacterial imbalances in your gut, your body is the number one vehicle that will allow you to experience joy and satisfaction, so treat it with care!
Meditate daily.
This is a no brainer. I’m sure anyone reading this article is familiar with the physical and psychological health benefits of mindfulness and meditation.
But there is one I’d like to add:
Meditation is long, slow, and you often you don’t see the deep benefits for a long time; in fact, when you are starting out, it can often seem like a complete leap of faith. But this is why it’s so important.
When you sit and stare at a wall or focus on your breath or do anything that (compared to our normal lives) is so bland, it conditions you to not grab on to the colorful, shiny objects that usually point you toward a shallow sense of fulfillment.
With a longstanding meditation practice that tendency to grasp will usually just fall away naturally. You’ll unknowingly get out of your own way.
Don’t force yourself to be positive all the time.
There’s a lot of advice in the self-help community and spiritual circles about being positive. Unfortunately, this isn’t always the best advice. It’s better to be positive when you are actually feeling positive than it is to be positive when you’re feeling negative.
Remove things that prevent happiness.
This is actually a lot more important than finding things to make you happy.
Are you in a toxic relationship?
Do you dislike your job?
Are you eating a lot of unhealthy food?
These things all need to go before you start to seek happiness; otherwise, they can hold you back and you may never be satisfied.

Meet new people.
Meeting new and positive people can give you new vital energy that kickstarts your life and helps you focus on enjoying the present.
Because we are such social creatures, having likeminded people in our lives can have such a powerful impact on the way our habits and beliefs develop. As the old saying goes, “You’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”
To find people with similar interests and ambitions in your city, there are plenty of sites that can help you connect. You can try MeetUp.com for starters, or just do a simple search in Facebook for groups in your area.
Likewise, if you are interested in meditation and spirituality, retreats are a great way to know people and connect on a deep level in a short amount of time.

Be okay with okay.
When people ask you, “How’s work? How’s the new city? How’s your relationship going?” Don’t you feel compelled to say “really good!” even when it’s not?
We’re so conditioned to feel like we need to have the best of everything that “okay” just isn’t good enough for most of us.
Learning to be okay with okay is a much better strategy toward allowing things to become great than is anxiously wishing that they already were.
Separate your happiness from your achievements.
We all need to learn to separate our happiness from our achievements. It’s okay to feel content with our lives simply because we have an inherent sense of self-worth.
Reaching our goals can obviously bolster this feeling and give us a deep sense of accomplishment, but the absence of achievement should not mean the absence of happiness.
Make serving others a regular habit.
One key habit of unhappy people that we often don’t talk about is that they are inherently self-centered.
This doesn’t mean that they are bad people by any means. It just means their minds spend a disproportionate amount of time focused on the self.
Serving others is one way to break this pattern of attention from “How am I feeling?” to “How are youfeeling?” There are a lot of studies that show that giving to others is more rewarding than receiving
Take small daily steps.
If you think you know what you want and you’re determined that it will make you happy, at least decide on small daily steps that you can take to get there.
Setting unrealistical goals that you never get to finish is far less fulfilling than setting small goals that you can finish and appreciate—and ones that let you know you’re on the right track.
Let go of unrealistic expectations about how happy you’re supposed to be.
For most of human history people lived relatively rough lives. The idea that you’re supposed to be happy all of the time is pretty new.
Though you should strive to live the fullest life you can, it’s actually more normal and perfectly okay to live an average life interspersed with brief periods of joy.
Decide what you really want to do.
A lot of people that are searching for happiness will end up with “shiny object syndrome.” This is what happens when they bounce from goal to goal because they’re looking for something (or someone) to take away all their suffering.
Knowing yourself and what you truly want can help you develop purpose and focus—so much so that you don’t even have time to waste pondering happiness. You may even realize that happiness is not what you really want, that you’re willing to put up with being unhappy some of the time if it means you will have a sense of achievement.
Practice living in the present.
Letting go of past regrets and future anxieties is not easy, but it’s the fastest way to live a full and enjoyable life. Think about enjoying each moment for its own unique role in the ongoing narrative of your life.
If you want a short mantra to keep in mind: be here now.
Take the word “happy” out of your vocabulary.
We all know words are used to communicate ideas. Unfortunately, sometimes a word can get overused and it becomes confusing, stifling, or even dangerous.
Here are some other words you should start to use in conversations with yourself and others about how you feel. Don’t be fooled into believing you need to experience all of them; you don’t.
If you find yourself asking, Am I happy? Replace the question with: Do I have [insert word] in my life?
- Contentment
- Enjoyment
- Laughter
- Well-being
- Peace of mind
- Cheerfulness
- Playfulness
- Hopefulness
- Blessedness

Let go of the fear of abandonment.
Fundamentally, we all crave for connection. But when fear of abandonment starts to rule our lives we make very irrational choices. I try to trust that what is meant to be will happen. And no matter how things turn out, we’ll come out of it okay.
Let go of draining, unhealthy relationships.
We are the average of the people we hang out with, and if they are frequently negative, it becomes hard for us to maintain an attitude of gratitude. It’s been a tough call to distance myself from people in my life who were bringing me down, but it was necessary to move on.
Let go of negativity.
In any given situation we have a choice—look at what’s good and be grateful, or look at what’s wrong and complain. Deliberately adopting the attitude of gratitude literally changed the course of my life.
Let go of perfectionism.
If I had a dime for every opportunity I squandered in the quest for perfection, I’d be rich! But no one can be perfect all the time. That’s what makes us humans. We are quirky. We have flaws. We are beautiful just the way we are.
Let go of pride.
Neither apology nor forgiveness is possible without letting go of pride. Nor is there room for authentic connection where pride resides. Let it go.
Let go of guilt.
On the flip side, if we are the ones who made a mistake, it is time to forgive ourselves and make amends. “I’m sorry. How can I fix it?” can go a long way in starting the healing process.
Let go of resentment.
Unless we walk in the shoes of the other, we really don’t know the reason for their behavior. Carrying resentment only hurts us and delays any repair. I cannot tell you how amazing it’s been to let go of some of the resentment I didn’t even know I’d been carrying for years!
Let go of the sense of entitlement.
I often found myself asking “Why me?” It was hard to replace that with “Why not?” After all, everyone gets their share of joys and sorrows; why should I somehow be above it and deserve only the joys?
Let go of trying to please everyone.
Every time we pretend to be someone, it takes us away from our true selves, and from our place of happiness. It was hard at first to stop trying to please others. Eventually I realized how liberating it was to dare to be myself!
Let go of trying to control everything.
The only thing that we can truly control is our own attitude and reactions. Once we accept that, we can find happiness right where we are, irrespective of how things turn out. This was perhaps the hardest but the most necessary part of the transformation for me.

Photosynthesis produces carbohydrates and oxygen, both of which are utilized by the majority of living things. Photosynthesis uses solar energy in the visible-light range; the photons of this range contain the right amount of energy to energize the electrons of chlorophyll molecules.

Why we breathe
Every cell in the human body needs fresh oxygen. Oxygen is used to process the energy from the foods we eat. Without oxygen, important nutrients wouldn’t reach any of the cells to help your body function. There is waste when the oxygen is doing its work. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the waste products of this process, and the body needs to get rid of it.
Breathing
Breathing isn’t something we often think about. When you were born, your lungs were filled with amniotic fluid; they were not inflated.
You took your first breath within about 10 seconds after being born, and from that point on, your breathing became an automatic response for your respiratory system.
Your respiratory system gathers the oxygen your body needs from the air. It also gets rid of what your body doesn’t need, like CO2 and other metabolic wastes. When all of this happens, your body’s organs are able to work properly.

Air Filtration
Air filtration happens in the upper and lower airways. This process protects the lungs by removing particles from inhaled air. Filtration removes as much dust and as many bacteria as possible.
Gas Exchange.
Gas exchange in your lungs is also a 2-step process:
1) Oxygen from the air is transferred to
the blood.
2) Carbon dioxide from the blood to the air. This all happens in the alveoli of the lungs.

Air Treatment
The air we breathe isn’t always the best for our bodies. In fact, if it’s dirty, too dry, too warm, or too cold, could do serious harm. To protect your lungs, the air you inhale is conditioned as it passes through your upper airways, your nasal cavities in particular.
Breathing
Breathing is a repetitive process.
Every breath has 2 steps:
1) Breathing in, which is called inhalation.
2) Breathing out, which is called exhalation.

Hormone
A hormone [Gk. hormao, instigate] is defined as an organic chemical produced by one set of cells that affects a different set. A hormone usually travels through the circulatory system to its target organ. It is important to stress that a hormone does not seek out a particular organ; to the contrary, the organ is awaiting the arrival of the hormone. Cells that can react to a hormone have specific receptors, which combine with the hormone in a lock-and-key manner. Therefore, certain cells respond to one hormone and not to another, depending on their receptors.

Brandy - "Have You Ever?"/"Almost Doesn't Count"
Almost made you love me
Almost made you cry
Almost made you happy, baby
Didn't I, didn't I
You almost had me thinkin'
You were turned around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you, baby
You'd found it in me
But you can't get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
I can't keep on lovin' you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that's never really sure
Can't keep on tryin'
If you're looking for more
Than all I could give you
Than what you came here for
Gonna find me somebody
Not afraid to let go
Want a no doubt be there kind of man
You came really close
But everytime you built me up
You only let me down
And everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
I can't keep on loving you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that's never really sure
Can't keep on tryin'
If you're looking for more
Than all I can give you
Than what you came here for
Maybe you'll be sorry
Maybe you'll be cold
Maybe you'll come running back, baby
> From the cruel, cruel world
Almost convinced me
You're gonna stick around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count
So maybe I'll be here
Maybe I'll see ya' round
That's the way it goes
Almost doesn't count
