Good Morning.
That aroma in the house is from the Door County Turtles In A Cup Coffee brewing in the kitchen. There is nothing groggy about this boy this morning. I am in attack mode. There is a lot to get done and a short time to get is done in today.
Proverbs 6:9-11 How long will you lie there, "O Sluggard"? When will you arise from your sleep? 10. A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of your hands to rest, 11. and poverty will come upon you like a robber and want like an armed man.
One nice thing about a busy day is that at the end of it, you are tired and hopefully you feel like you accomplished something. That makes for a good day. But, nothing happens unless you get up, get going and get it done. We all need a sense of accomplishment now and then and one way to feel good about a day is to accomplish some goals you set or goals that have been set for you.
Sitting around the table and thinking about a chore or goal isn't accomplishing a thing. Moving forward is the goal for a successful day. Procrastinating just leads to depression and depression adds up and takes a toll on the body, mind and spirit. Life is not meant to be a Huckleberry Finn adventure. In all honesty Huckleberry was a fictional character who lived off of others efforts. It makes for great reading but not a great example of ambition.
My mother used to say. " The best place to look for a helping hand is at the end of your own arm"
So today, if you feel like being sluggish, one day is ok. String a few days together and you have a problem. Get moving and you can make this day a great one.
