A Different Philosophy

Months ago, while casually surfing the internet, I stumbled upon a website offering a free name report. The report was surprisingly accurate and after further investigation I began adopting and integrating their particular philosophy. My prior pattern, work Monday through Saturday rest on Sunday, has been replaced with another pattern.

I’d grown comfortable with my pattern, workwise, and the adaptation of a different methodology and its implementation is something I hadn’t even entertained in the past. I suppose most growth is uncomfortable or stated differently, growth cannot exist in the vacuum of comfort.

Testing boundaries, asking more challenging questions, posing seemingly impossible scenarios are means to growth and development. Remaining within the confines of comfort leaves many questions unanswered and problems unsolved.

Today, Thursday, November 28, 2019, I am grateful that:

I’m willing to adapt uncommon practices with hopes their integration and implementation will make me a more impactful servant. My current skillset has gotten me to where I am but it won’t get me to where I need to go. If I don’t acquire new skills, tactics, and fine tune my strategy, I won’t be able to accomplish all that’s required.

My horizons are broadening. With daily objectives set forth adhering to this new philosophy offers more guidance than before. Although general in nature, the guidance offered steer my efforts for any particular day and allow for a bit more focus. It also insights about motives of each directive and reasoning for implementation or postponement of most activities.

My comradarie with Daniel, Jeremiah, and Tyrone is strengthening. It’s been great fellowshipping with peers my age. It’s been refreshing and something that seldomly happens here. Most visitors are either young and on diving excursions or quite old and on excursions of a different nature. The last week or so with the fellas has been refreshing.

Abandon Comfort. Be Impactful!
