Sharp Tools

3/11/2015

I have subscribed to the Science of Mind Guide for Spiritual Living magazine for many years and find it to be a reliable place to go for inspiration. A quotation from Abraham Lincoln is featured today: "If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend six hours sharpening my ax." This sounds like good advice and it's something I've noticed over the years. For example, prep time always seems to take longer and seems to be more laborious than the final action. It can take months to get ready to do something that takes only hours or at most a day to accomplish. Does that mean that we're wasting time, or are we sharpening our tools? The affirmation for today suggested turning one's to-do list over to God. This, too, is very good advice. As always, I asked AMAG if they agreed. They said, "It's good to make lists of what you wish to accomplish if it helps you organize your thoughts. Just don't make a big 'to-do' over the timing. Relax. Allow yourself to synchronize with whatever you are doing and the best time for action will present itself to you."

What a great topic. I am dealing with this right now as I would like to share what gifts I can through music. And yet, sometimes it seems I have been sharpening the axe so long in preparation that it is wearing out while I consider how and what more I might need to begin chopping. Hope there is some divine timing in all this and that it is not just procrastination and fear..Some times it seems, despite my best intentions, the follow through gets side tracked as it seems to have today. But "if you can see it, you don't have to be it" so I am planning an effective day tomorrow, fueled from the restoration of today, appreciating what has been done, and with a new refreshed and divinely guided opportunity list. Any angelic help, as in "Hiring the Heavens," and other comment or suggestions are welcome...Thank you
