The glorious green month of March is here!
March is when things begin to green up. March weather is un-predictable – a
“lion” or a “lamb”. March is like Charles Dickens described: “Summer in the
light and winter in the shade.” March
brings the first day of spring! March gardens begin to grow and lawns begin to
flourish. And in March we can “march”
forward with our preparedness! It is a great time to tap into the “luck of the
Irish”. Thomas Jefferson once said, “I’m a great believer in luck and I find
the harder I work, the more I have of it.”
Roman Philosopher Seneca said, “Luck is what happens when preparations
meets opportunity.” So as we are more prepared – the more luck we will have
when facing trials that storms of the latter days will bring. Remember the 6
P’s: Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance! Let the Luck you find in
March be because you have worked hard and prepared. Then whether the wind blows
or the sun shines, we need not fear! We are lucky we know we should prepare,
and we can be prepared to be lucky!
