It is an official day to practice anything on your way. Many people succeed in life by standing to their ideas and working hard for them. So don’t be afraid to express your ideas today, stand up for what you believe in, and do everything in your way. Being on your way offers some pretty terrific rewards. Many of us have dreamed about it, but few of us leap. This is your day, just make sure that whatever you decide to do is legal.

“I’m an idealist. I don’t know where I’m going, but I’m on my way.” – Carl Sandburg

History of My Way Day

The origin of My Way Day is not yet found. Hoping that reason behind the creation would be to encourage people to pursue anything without fear in a right way. My Way Day is based on a famous American idiom, i.e., My way or the highway meaning of having the attitude of believing that one is always right and that anyone who doesn’t agree has no business dealing with it. This idiom dates back to the 1970s which suggests a condition like “take it or leave it”. This day must be celebrated to mark the importance of the day.

My Way (оригинал Frank Sinatra)

Я был собою

And now, the end is near,
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
I’ll state my case
of which I am certain.
I’ve lived the life that’s full,
I travelled each and every highway,
And more, much more than this,
I did it… my way.
Regrets? I’ve had a few,
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.
I planned each charted course,
Each careful step along the byway,
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew,
When I bit off more than I could chew,
But through it all,
when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out,
I faced it all and I stood tall,
And did it my way.
I,ve loved, I,ve laughed and cried,
I,ve had my fill, my share of losing,
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think, I did all that,
And may I say, not in a shy way ..
Oh, no. Oh no, not me ..
I did it my way.
For what is a man? What has he got,
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels,
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.
Yes, it was my way.
