DROP THE BONE........

DROP THE BONE

A dog has taught me an important lesson in this encounter.

I was in my vehicle commuting from home to my daily errands driven by my driver. The vehicle was speeding at about 80kms per hour.

Suddenly, I saw a dog running so fast to cross the road.


I was frightened that the vehicle would overrun the dog. I was praying that the dog would increase its speed and cross the road safely. The vehicle was fast approaching the dog.

Then, I saw the dog suddenly increase its speed and was able to cross the road successfully.

Pheew, I sighed, thanking God it wasn’t hit by the vehicle.

But, there is something I noticed that fell off before the dog suddenly increased its speed.

I asked my driver, could you please reverse. I need to see what fell off.

When I saw what fell off, one of the greatest lessons sunk into my thick skull.

The dog let go of the BONE it was carrying to enjoy peacefully at a quiet environment.

It was that SIMPLE, it reached a point where the dog had to let go of the bone in order to gain speed and save its life.

Comrades, Men and Women, the dog is SMART… I thought.

What’s the LESSON?

Let go of the bone.

There are or were bones we have held onto in 2022.

If we succeed to let go of the 2022 ‘BONES’, then we will do wonders in 2023 and years beyond.

There are so many types of bones which for sure have held us back.

Let’s make the painful decision of letting go of the bone(s).

Let’s not carry these BONES and cross them over into 2023.

Let’s drop them immediately.

1. Failure to seek new thoughts or new ways of doing things is a BONE
2. Doing things in the same unsuccessful manner, year in year out is a BONE

3. Thinking that money alone is the source of your happiness; that’s the HARDEST BONE

4. Watching our friends fail; yet we could have helped them succeed .…BONE

5. Hatred, Greed, Selfishness, Backbiting, Divide and Rule Tactics, these are all BONES that need to be dropped

6. "Campism", I belong to this camp and not that camp is a very dangerous BONE which must be dropped

7. Egotism, it's "I" and only "me" and if "I am" not the one then it's no one else - is a BONE

8. Lateness and acting irresponsibly is a BONE

9. Not worshiping your Maker, that’s a tricky BONE, even the hyena cannot handle.

10. Being not serious with worshiping God is a BONE

11. Wants of money even through means that are not acceptable before God is a BONE 

These are only few examples, the list is endless.

Let’s drop the BONE, so that we have a prosperous and victorious 2023 and peaceful years ahead.

Please tell all your friends and your loved ones to drop the BONE.

BONES lag us behind from reaching our God -destined potential.


Happy 2023 and God bless you abundantly.

TOMORROW ...... PROCRASTINATION

-
Image
Procrastination is the act of delaying or putting off tasks until the last minute, or past their deadline. Some researchers define procrastination as a "form of self-regulation failure characterized by the irrational delay of tasks despite potentially negative consequences." It's Friday afternoon and the clock is ticking. You're working furiously to complete a task before the five o'clock deadline, while silently cursing yourself for not starting it sooner. How did this happen? What went wrong? Why did you lose your focus? Well, there were the hours that you spent re-reading emails and checking social media, the excessive "preparation," the coffee breaks, and the time spent on other tasks that you could have safely left for next week. Sound familiar? If so, you're not alone! Procrastination is a trap that many of us fall into. In fact, according to research and speaker Piers Steel 95 percent of us procrastinate to some degree.

LIFE PLAN

Remember when we were younger, and people used to ask us what we wanted to be when we grew up? It may seem silly to ask an eight-year-old what they hope to do with their life. But maybe this small talk was also a way to get us to think about what we wanted from life. And most of us answered this question with confidence, revealing our hopes and dreams. However, as we grew older and learned how to manage the curveballs life threw at us, we might have lost sight of what we once hoped to become and achieve.  If you catch yourself daydreaming about how your life could be different or maybe just need a better outlook for the future, look no further.  We will cover the basics of life planning, identify strategies and goals to think more about, and learn some tools to get our lives moving on a better track. Ready, set, go. What Is Life Planning? (A Definition) I have a question for you, dear reader. What do you want to be when you grow up? I won’t be upset if you rolled your eyes or let out a

Stop Letting Your Past Define Your Future

  It’s Time To Stop Letting Your Past Define Your Future You’re down, you’re tired, you’re hurting, you’ve somehow lost your way. You’ve given someone’s negative opinion of you far too much credit. You’ve let a failed relationship make you fearful of connecting again. You’ve allowed someone’s poor treatment of you to shift the way you see yourself. YOU HAVE TO STOP...... I know you’ve been through some sh*t. We all have. We all have our share of brokenness, discouragement, emptiness, and defeat. We’ve all lost people.  We’ve all been cheated on or left by someone we loved. We’ve all floundered in our faith or slipped somewhere on the path. We’ve all fought demons, illness, mental issues, and pain. We’ve all been let down, had enemies, or made enemies of ourselves. We’ve all had days when we question whether we have the strength to continue. This is not meant to take your problems and shove them to the side, make light of them, or diminish them in comparison to anyone else’s. This is to
