Uncaging My Mind And Spirit

It May Be Impossible
To Accentuate The Assets
That Are Stored Inside Of Myself
If I Allow My Creative Energies
To Be Entirely Expended
On Events That Have Already Occurred

At The End Of Each Evening
Before My Physical Body
Is Swallowed Up By Sleep
I Clean My Psychic Calendar
Of The Accumulated Clutter
I Collected During My Day

I Reset My Mind
With A New Fresh Mold
Before The Next Morning
To Ensure That My Mental Might
Maintains Its Maximum Momentum

To Begin Tomorrow Feeling Free
I Will Need To Firmly Fix My Focus
On The Future As It Unfolds
And I Will Need To Liberate My Life
From The Mental Anchors Chains And Yokes
Of Yesterday And Yesteryear

Yesterday Is Dead And Gone
And There Is No Going Back
To My Original Beginning
Or To The Exact Times
When I Should Have Taken
More Care Of My Thoughts

Caging The Mind And Spirit
In A Period That Has Passed
Is A Perilous Path To Pursue
For Anyone Who Expects
To Become A Premier Performer

A Preoccupation With The Past
Is A Living Liability
For A Progressive Person
Who Is Committed To Climbing
Up His Mental Mountain
To The Peak Of His Potential
