Right now I am pumping the greens and Pre-workout and loving them both… Heres a secret “I’m on them right now as I do my podcast”. 

 

 

You are at home and a pipe bursts sending water all over the place. It may ruin the floor, but its also costing you money on your water bill and you have to pay to fix it. It requires immediate action… not really. Many of us have bursting pipes causing water to go all over the place, rotting floors and costing us hundreds in our water bill and the cost of fixing it AND WE DO NOTHING ABOUT IT…

The problem is that the bursting pipe is in slow motion and looks a lot like a leaking pipe… yes actually it is a leaking pipe… We can put it off, no real emergency - YET! 

 

 

This ties into the idea behind Murphy’s law. You know what that is, but just in case you have been beamed to earth from another planet - it simply states anything that can go wrong will go wrong. 

The truth is - honestly that this is factual. What do I mean by that? Well it is based on the 2nd law of thermodynamics… all things breakdown. Essentially all things must be tended to or they get worse. 

 

Bill Toomey American gold medalist in the Decatholon not only took the gold but he prepared to take the Gold in any condition. He did his homework and after studying years of research on the Olympics and the decathlon event he realized that during many Olympics it rained and even rained during his event. Everyone hoped and prayed it would not rain… but no one except him prepared and practiced in the rain. In fact he learned to love to practice in the rain. And guess what happened during the decathlon… it rained. Toomey practiced like normal and was actually chomping at the mouth to take on each event… 

He learned to not waste time, think through any obstacle before it ever happened and to in a sense prepare for the worst and execute anyway.

 

he never let the drip become a tsunami… he dealt with every issue before it happened.

 

you know John Wooden the greatest college basketball coach ever used to teach his incoming freshmen how to tie their shoes? He didn’t overlook anything.

 

So you get up in the morning… you hit snooze, you then have to pick out your clothes, then grab quick bite out the door to work or you stop and pay $9 at the convenient store for 2 monsters and a bagel sandwich… On the way to work you start to think through what you are doing that day… 

What a waste. 

Before bed each night, you put your alarm clock out in the hallway so when you get up you are up. You have already picked out your clothes, put them by your bed, you have already packed your breakfast and your lunch. You sat in bed and looked over your calendar and day for tomorrow and you have put a few thoughts into it. This whole routine takes 20 minutes and buys you an hour in the morning and greater productivity. 

 

Col. 3:23 Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,

 

I have an idea that if you were working for Jesus tomorrow and he was in the office you would plan out the day quite a bit differently and you wouldn’t wait until the last minute. so why not start now… make the most of every moment, plan ahead, plan for the worst and expect the best as you work as unto the Lord.
