英语励志文章：Just for today
just for today i will try to live through this day only and not tackle my whole life problem at once. i can do something for twelve hours that would appall me if i had to keep it up for a lifetime.
just for today i will be happy. this assumes to be true what abraham lincoln said，that "most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be."
just for today i will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. i will take my "luck" as it comes.
just for today i will try to strengthen my mind. i will study. i will learn something useful. i will not be a mental loafer. i will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.
just for today i will exercise my soul in three ways. i will do somebody a good turn and not get found out: if anybody knows of it, it will not count. i will do at least two things i don't want to do—just for exercise. i will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt: they may be hurt, but today i will not show it.
just for today i will be agreeable. i will look as well as i can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit，and try not to improve or regulate anybody but myself.
just for today i will have a program, i may not follow it exactly, but i will have it. i will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision.
just for today i will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. during this half hour, sometime, i will try to get a better perspective of my life.
just for today i will be unafraid. especially i will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful，and to believe that as i give to the world, so the world will give to me.
参考译文：
就为了今天
就为了今天，我将尽力只度过今天而不立刻去解决终身的问题。对一件令我沮丧而又必须坚持一辈子的事，我只能坚持十二个小时。
就为了今天，我会很快乐。亚伯拉罕-林肯说过，“大多数人都是决定想怎么高兴就怎么高兴。”这已经被认为是真理。
就为了今天，我会做自我调整适应事物本来的面目，而不是想方设法使每一件事满足自己的欲望。当机会来临的时候我会抓住它。
就为了今天，我会尽力心强志坚。我会学习，学一些有用的东西。我不会做一个精神上的流浪汉。我会读一些需要努力、思考和注意力集中的东西。
就为了今天，我会用三种方法来磨炼我的灵魂。我会做对某人有利的事但不能被发现，若有人发现了就不算数。我将会做至少两件我不愿做的事情——只为了磨练。我不会让任何人感到我的感情受到了伤害：它们可能受到了伤害，但今天我不想表现出来。
就为了今天，我会过得很惬意。看起来我达到了最佳状态，穿着得体、讲话谦虚、行为礼貌、一点不吹毛求疵，尽量改进和调节自己而不是别人。
就为了今天，我会制定一个计划，我也许不会严格地遵守它，但我一定要有计划。我会避免两种错误：仓促行事和优柔寡断。
就为了今天，我将会独自静静地呆上半小时放松。在这半小时里，某个时刻，我会日后对我的生活有个更好的看法。
就为了今天，我将不再害怕。尤其我不会再害怕享受美丽的事物，并且相信我给予世界的，世界也会给予我。
