Avoiding Temptation
Yesterday I wrote about having options. I was contemplating another opportunity in the states. Going back, working, making some money, and doing something I’ve already done. Not the job, but the pattern.
It’s easy to find employment. There are always opportunities for people with my skill set. That’s not the issue. The issue is application of my skill set to my business, and my purpose. Doing the things required to fulfill the reason I’m on the planet.
I must face the fact that I’ll probably always be tempted by employment opportunities. That’s part of the process. I Have to avoid temptation. I must remain focused on my mission. I must stay true to myself and walk the path He has set me on.
Today, Thursday, September 23, 2021, I am grateful that:
I’ve seemingly learned a lesson from the past. It’s not easy to turn away the benefits of guaranteed money, yet that path isn’t the most fruitful. Short term gains can diminish long term benefits.
I’m back into my morning routine. The remainder of the day is lacking until I can confer with a client, but the morning is back and regimented.
There’s a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. My efforts are beginning to yield a bounty. I’m curious to see just how large the crop will be in the near future. I’d like to think I’ll have to hire more “farm hands” so the crop doesn’t die on the vine.
How do you remain focused?
Do you enjoy your mission?
How do you stay true to yourself?
How do you avoid temptations in your professional and personal life?
Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
