My wife recently read a book outlining a decent spiritual/mental model to help one to deal with the ins and outs of daily life. The model goes as follows: Either the night prior to or the morning of a day (any day, really), mentally lay out and pray over your plans for the day, asking God for His help on any big issues that you think you might encounter. Label this view of the day ahead as “Plan A”. As you go about your day, note any deviations from that plan and consider them “Plan B”, placed there by God.
Today is definitely shaping up to be a “Plan B” day and it’s not even 11am. All ongoing projects have been set aside as our primary DB server decided to take a walk in the park. Poof! there goes “Plan A”. Onwards and upwards we go, on to Plan B!
On To Plan B
