At my desk, I keep five note cards. Each card has a saying or quote I want to be reminded of. 

With a new year, I replace two to three of the cards with new cards. When I select a new quote, it is geared toward something I want to remind myself of or an attitude I need to work on. 

Here are the five things I remind myself of every day for 2021:

"Excellence is the next 5 minutes"   

-Tom Peters

"Trade your expectations for appreciation."

-Tony Robbins

"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."

-Theodore Roosevelt

"What you appreciate appreciates."

-Jim Kwik

"Do your best and forgive yourself."

-Admiral Payne
