Today, I want to talk about the one thing you should do in the morning. This one habit will set the tone for the day. You might even feel inspired to do more!

I want you to go make your bed. Do it right now if you haven’t already. And then I want you to do it again tomorrow. And the next day. And the next until it becomes a habit.

Admiral William McRaven said, If you wanna change the world, start off by making your bed.

You can watch his inspiring speech below.

Does that sound far fetched?

Here’s the thing. This is important. So pay attention. When we are faithful in the little things, God will trust you to do even bigger things.

‘Well done, my good servant!’ his master replied. ‘Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities.’ Luke 19:17

When you get up and make your bed in the morning several things happen:

  • you’ll feel good knowing you did that one thing
  • you’ll be less likely to crawl back in
  • you’ll get to turn back the covers on a neat bed in the evening
  • you’ll be encouraged to do other small tasks
  1. Watch the video below and then go make your bed.
  2. Answer the questions below the video. 
  3. Tonight, wash all your dishes before you go to bed!

Let’s make these two things a habit!
