It’s Always Something

On Sunday I had the chance to attend a birthday party. One of the hosts is a subject matter expert and has provided some assistance with an ongoing project. As we stood there talking about the project, he said I needed to learn another application. He explained I would eventually be paying someone to do the work, but I needed to be comfortable with the application and its uses.

I was probably a teenager when I first heard about the concept of a lifelong learner. If asked, I’d say I’m willing to continually grow and learn. When I heard his words on Sunday, I offered no resistance. It’s part of my journey. It’s part of moving closer to His design for my life, which I live in service to Him.

Today, Friday, September 16, 2022, I am grateful that:

Herb and I spoke last night. I thoroughly enjoy our conversation. Consistency is key. We’ve been having these conversations on a weekly basis for years now. Yet, every week there’s something new and refreshing.

My current project is nearly completed. Technically, the first draft is almost finished. Once it’s submitted to the client I’ll await his feedback and revision requests. At that point, I’ll be able to focus more on my current project and work towards a profitable launch.

My vigor has remained high for several weeks, if not months now. I’m focused on what I need to do and how I will get it done. Now I work towards that end. The only time I deviate from the plan is when I need to generate money to keep going. I’ve been staying afloat, just surviving, not thriving. My level of existence is acceptable, but only for the moment. It will not be my standard. This is only temporary.

Are you a lifelong learner?

What skills have you added this year?

What other skills will you add this year?

What books and courses have you purchased or attended this year?

Which ones would you like to attend?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
