WHAT HAPPENED TODAY:

1969: The Apollo 11 astronauts, two of whom had become the first men to set foot on the moon, splashed down safely in the Pacific.

2019: Special counsel Robert Mueller reported to the U.S. Senate that Donald Trump was not exonerated of obstruction of justice and that Russia interfered in the U.S. election to benefit Trump.

WORD OF THE DAY: assuage [ uh-sweyj ]

to make milder or less severe; alleviate; ease; mitigate

To assuage his guilt over the misunderstanding, he bought his friend lunch, hoping the gesture would ease the tension between them.

DAILY AFFIRMATION: I Choose Not To Compare Myself To Others.

Enhances Self-Acceptance: Choosing not to compare yourself to others promotes self-acceptance by focusing on your own journey and accomplishments, rather than measuring them against someone else’s standards or achievements.

PLUS, TODAY WE CELEBRATE: Tequila Day

On July 24th, commemorate National Tequila Day with a little lime and salt. Mix up a Margarita, Paloma, or a Mamasita to celebrate the day! People have been making Tequila for centuries, and it was once known as mezcal wine. In fact, Tequila is mezcal, but mezcal isn’t Tequila. That’s because Tequila is distilled from a specific type of agave plant. Also, the law protects its production. Take a sip, and we’ll travel into Tequila’s history.
