I watched the interview of a man of God recently who outlined how his typical day goes. He starts his day at 3a.m with personal prayers and study of God’s word. By 5a.m, he gathers his family for devotion, after which he embarks on his daily prayer walk/exercise that lasts for 90 minutes to 2 hours. Then, he takes his bath and leaves for the office. He sets the agenda for the day in-between these activities and writes down what he will do, the people he would see and the meetings for the day.

This lifestyle is not peculiar with this man of God alone. Not just in the time each person starts the day, but in the organization and consistency in doing what matters most and adds value to living. This is what it takes to succeed in life. I have not known any successful person in any field of endeavor who does not have a working understanding of this principle.
