The resolution, "I'm not ever again going to do so and so," is easily broken and too often not bothered with any more. Yet there is a wonderful way to keep such a resolution. It's the "one day ^ at a time" method, and it's made to order for staying safe. You can stay safe each day if you start each morning determined to get through this one day without an accident. You should say to yourself each morning: "Today I'm going to observe every safety rule and sign; today I'm going to use protective equipment when needed, even if necessary only for a brief moment, today I'm going to do everv iob in a cafo two" ? ^ as the best way; and today I'm going to complete the day's work without once taking a chance." Start each day with safety in mind. What happened yesterday is past history. What happens tomorrow or next month you can't control right now. Today is the day to get through safely. # #
