Good Morning Garden

Knock everything systematically. No matter what you hear of, deprecate it and predict the worst.

Mind everyone else’s business. This will insure your neglecting your own.

Never perform today what you can possibly postpone until tomorrow.

Leave the important things to someone else instead of seeing to them personally.

Have no organized arrangements. Trust to luck for everything.

Be a sanctimonious humbug, and when you bungle things say it is “the Lord’s will” or that the trouble is that you are too good for your
surroundings.

Sit down and wait for something to turn up.

Finally, conduct your life in all respects as if there were no God.

Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
(Psalm 39:8)

The bottom line to this is that failure has some general characteristics. Focusing on the outer instead on the inner, on others instead of the self, on the negative as opposed to the positive, on luck instead of work, on fear instead of faith and on criticism instead of praise. One conclusion that seems obvious is that failure is easy and available as the closest excuse. Success is difficult and as close as our beating hearts.

Focusing on success,
