Daily Resolutions

The idea of "twenty-four-hour living"  applies primarily to the emotional life of the individual.  Emotionally speaking, we must not live in yesterday, nor in tomorrow. 
As Bill sees it, p. 284


A new Year: 12 months, 52 weeks, 365 days, 8,760 hours, 525,600 minutes -- a time to consider directions, goals, and actions.  I must make some plans to live a normal life, but also I must live emotionally within a twenty-four-hour frame, for if I do, I don't have to make New Year's resolutions! I can make every day a New Year's day!  I can decide, "Today I will do this.... Today I will do that."  Each day I can measure my life by trying to do a little better, by deciding to follow God's will and by making an effort to put the principles of our A.A. program into action.
