Farmers and gardeners carefully prepare the soil to receive their offerings of seeds and plants. Some till the soil; others adopt the philosophy of no-till (for a multitude of eco-friendly reasons). Either way, thought and preparation go into the pre-planting process. What do you do to prepare for a successful day?
A successful day doesn’t just happen for any of us. Careful thought and planning should go into each day. It begins even before your feet hit the floor in the morning. What routine do you follow, or do you even have one? Do you dread the start of the day, or do you rise with energy, anticipation, and excitement? Your attitude and preparation set the tone for the day. This is your garden. Is it ripe for opportunity for the future? Is it fertile for a positive and fruitful day? (2 Timothy 2:15)
How have you prepared for the day? Life is what we make of it.
