Every morning when you wake up, try to cultivate beneficial thoughts before you start your day. You might think, for example, “That my body, speech, and mind can be used in a more compassionate way, so that I can serve others.” 

That’s how I usually do it. This makes life more meaningful.

~ Dalai Lama
