I Quit!
I QUIT!
Have
you ever lost heart? Have you ever wanted to quit? Have you felt
discouraged, defeated, or distracted because of someone else’s success,
or your lack thereof?
I know I have.
I
recently had a friend call me to ask me how “so-and-so” was succeeding,
and why things weren’t going the same for her. We’ve all been there
before….
Today—I
want to help you to put this feeling into perspective and put your
emotions in their place in order to help you finish your race, at the
pace that is planned for your life.
Have
you ever thought that perhaps those people were placed in your life to
encourage you? People who are more successful than you are—have stronger
marriages, or experiencing great accomplishments to show you what is
possible?
When
you see or hear about other people succeeding or doing what you want to
do, don’t get jealous. Don’t think “this is never going to happen for
me” or “they had exceptional breaks in their business”. Get rid of that
negative thinking! Get beyond the barriers of the past and expect great
things for YOUR life .
Perhaps
these people have been placed in your life to inspire you. When you see
their joy, victory, and achievement say “I am so happy for them! I know
I can be blessed in a similar way! I know I can have a successful
business! I know I can have a great marriage! I know I can be happy!”
There’s
a seed inside of you trying to take root right now. Hope and expectancy
can bring forth a tremendous harvest in your life! You may be
struggling right now—but it’s time for promotion! Don’t look to the
left, don’t look to the right—don’t look at what others are doing. Look
ahead, and be focused on your goals and celebrate your growth along the
way!
When
we waste valuable energy comparing ourselves to others we are
overlooking our potential, and the opportunity for growth in our own
life. We might be trying to emulate something someone else is doing, and
in the meantime missing our calling because we aren’t doing what we are
supposed to be doing! We may have been given a way to do things bigger,
and better—but perhaps we’ve missed it as our focus is placed on the
wrong things!
Focus on YOUR MISSION and increase YOUR VISION! It’s your time to shine!
