Last Sunday, my eldest son was excited when I came into their room that morning.
He said with excitement, "Daddy, it's going to be a good day today".
Stunned by the proclamation, I asked him why he said so, and he said...
"Daddy, today, my teacher will give me a price for memorising and reading Psalm 23, and also, Uncle Joshua (his favourite uncle) will be acting".
I laughed but I learned a lesson I want to share with you.
The boy had decided that no matter what, that day was going to be a good day, even before anything happened!
I had an epiphany! How your day would be is your choice!
If you decide it would be a great day in advance, nothing can change that.
External things cannot control if you are internally determined.
I can almost hear you ask, "what if bad things happen? What if your boy's teacher forgets to give him his price or his favourite uncle refused to act?"
I believe the declaration he made into his day was enough to save him from those disappointments.
I have since started practicing it. I decide every day that I'm going to have a great day, no matter what.
I am going to add value to people, no matter what. I am going to inspire someone, no matter what.
You too can make that decision early every day! Decide and make a choice of how you want your day to go.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue!
I believe in you.
