Stop Comparing, Show Gratitude

Now that you have set your goals for the remaining of the year, what are your results so far? Have you seen any come through yet? Are you still working towards finishing the year strong? I can faithfully say, I am. There are a lot of great things happening in my life as we speak. Some I publicized and some I don't because I'm working on something. I want to continue to have a positive mindset toward my goals and towards my actions behind my goals.

I can honestly say I'm allocating the right amount of time in working hard and relaxing the brain and body. And as a result of this, provisions are being made on my behalf. I am feeling stronger each day physically, mentally, and more importantly, spiritually. I am preparing for the next best thing in my life. I’m doing all of this while NOT comparing myself with anyone else’s progress.

I certainly hope you guys are on track! It's important.

It’s easy to ask God or anyone for something, get it, forgot you got it, and move on. Don't let that blessing turn into a lesson because you didn't know how to appreciate it. Acknowledge you have received it. Don't take that gift for granted. It’s a miracle you’ve got it. Show gratitude and humility because God saw fit to give it to you.

Stop looking at what you don't have or what you haven't done. Do you see growth? If you see progress, no matter how big or small, appreciate it. I'm telling you, don't lose out because of your pride. Don't lose out because you didn't take the time to mature in your thinking. Forget about what you don't have because God gave you all that you need.

I know you will continue to finish strong, but let's take a week to show gratefulness for your advancements. Create an environment to flourish, for yourself. God will provide provision. There are resources for you to finish strong. It doesn't matter how you started. Speak what you want to see and finish the year stronger than any other year.

Finishing this year strong is crucial.
