Your attitude toward your day and toward your children's efforts profoundly affects the outcome of your homeschooling. When you focus on the joys in your life, your days flow better and you accomplish much more. "Joyful Homeschooling" introduces you to ten "mindsets" - a different mindset each week - and it provides you with prompts for the week to help you put this new mindset into action and turn it into a habit. One of the best things you can do for yourself and for your homeschool is to take a couple of minutes each morning to "get your head on straight" before you start your day.

In the book of Philippians we are told to be anxious over nothing, and yet we are anxious over everything. We worry that our students will be "behind," that they won't score well on the SAT, get into a good college, or read enough of the Great Books. Our souls are restless, anxiously wondering if something else out there might be just a little bit better -- if maybe there is another way or another curriculum that might prove to be superior to what we are doing now. God doesn't call us to this work and then turn away to tend to other, more important matters. He promises to stay with us. He assures us that if we rely on Him alone, then He will provide all that we need. What that means on a practical level is that we have to stop fretting over every little detail. We need to stop comparing. We've got to drop the self-inflated view that we are the be-all-end-all of whether the education we are offering our students is going to be as successful as we hope it is. After all, our job is not to be successful -- success itself is entirely beside the point. It's faithfulness that He wants.
