Welcome to Day 1836 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Make A Beginning – Daily Wisdom Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1836 of our Trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote along with some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2016%3A16&version=NLT (Proverbs 16:16) How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget: Today’s quote is from Soren Kierkegaard, and it is: A road well begun is the battle half won. The important thing is to make a beginning and get underway. Make A Beginning As we have talked about in past episodes, you will never make progress if you never begin a task. Starting a job is usually the most challenging part, and once you start and pick up momentum, the task becomes increasingly more accessible. That is why the most important aspect of anything that you are attempting to do is to get started. While we need to plan before moving forward, you will begin to see diminishing returns from your continued planning at some point in the planning process. Therefore, you need to get underway on what you are working on and execute the plans you have created. Finally, you have to come to a point where you say, no more getting ready, to get ready and begin. Please don’t put it off any longer; the important thing is to keep moving forward. As we are to do everything in this life to the honor and glory of God, not beginning is stifling your ability to do so. So, put your God-given talents and skills to the work of building His kingdom in every task you undertake. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2021%3A5&version=NLT (Proverbs 21:5) Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.
