Mission Critical

By Abe Newmeyer, January 26, 2019

Purpose & DirectionWork & Business

Whenever I watch a movie with a task oriented objective, I have become sensitive to how the main character does whatever it takes to complete the mission. It’s critical and pivotal to the plot of the movie for one, but the other reason is they have a “by any means necessary” mentality.

I am rekindling that mentality within myself. For about two months I’ve been living in another country. The mission - moved to the Phillippines, publish my first novel, write the sequel, and complete edits on another novel already written. I have only completed one task. The mission has developed some interesting plot twists and I am recommitting the mission.

I’m currently sitting in my makeshift classroom. I took a position teaching English to Koreans. Objective completion is impossible without to money to pay the bills. The phase of over in another couple of weeks but I’ve become restless once again. The mission objective is callling once more. It must be completed - by any means necessary.

Today, Saturday, January 26, 2019, I am grateful that:

I have been able to identify what’s important and what’s not with regards to where I am today.

I can recommit and work for what’s important to me and my fulfillment of my purpose. I know why I am here and why I was given my gifts.

Today’s challenge - Identify you gifts. Think of ways to exploits your gifts and list at least 3 ways.
