Make Today Matter

10 Habits for a Better Life (and World)

Click here to read a sample chapter.

How can we rise to the occasion every single day of our lives?
How can we seize each day as a unique opportunity, and see each day as a gift?

Chris Lowney answers those questions in Make Today Matter, winner of a 2018 Independent Press Award as “Distinguished Favorite” in the Inspiration category. The book also won a Gold Medal in the 2019 Illumination Awards. Chris introduces readers to ten simple yet powerful habits that will add up to a better life, and a better world. Those habits emerge through inspiring stories of ordinary people who are making each day count in extraordinary ways, whether in a high school classroom, a hospital emergency room, one of the planet’s largest garbage dumps, or a sprawling, impoverished shantytown in Venezuela.

Still, it’s one thing to know what matters in life, quite another thing to do what matters, day in and day out, despite the confusing, unpredictable, and frustrating environments in which we all live and work. That’s where “the Wisdom App“ comes in, a powerful practice that ties the ten habits together, and that anyone could begin implementing tomorrow, a first step along the path to making every day matter.


Make Today Matter was honored with an Independent Press Award.

Ten bloggers joined in a blog hop celebrating Make Today Matter. Each writer reflected on a different habit from the book. Find the full list of those posts and videos with me introducing each habit here.

This Arrupe quote really struck me...(anyone happen to know the cite? I guess it's embedded in a broader talk?)
