5 Practical steps to go from rock bottom to rock solid.
_Extended Version_
Stop feeling sorry for yourself.
The more you feel sorry for yourself, the less inspired you will be to fight for change. And remember the spirit that God gave you.
Check your close circle.
You become like the 5 people you spend most of your time with. Think about how it’s much easier to get infected with disease than it is to cure it. If your friends lack ambition, so will you.
Work with excellence.
Promotion comes from the Lord, God will not overlook your efforts, and He will bless you. Never ever has laziness or mediocrity been rewarded. Be innovative, go the extra mile.
Sacrifice a little now and gain a lot later.
Think of it as investing money, you’ll have less to spend now, but in 10 years time, your money would have grown stacks! It’s the same with maybe even leaving one job where there’s no potential or promise for growth, for another less paying job where that’s a guarantee. You might end up working 2 jobs for the next 2 or 3 years, but after that, you’ll be well away and in a much greater position. Or you might have to sacrifice going out as much with your friends for the next 3 years in order to get a degree.
Pray.
Not for a miracle but for opportunity, discernment, wisdom & understanding. One of our biggest problems we are facing today, is that we are a miracle seeking generation; we want everything without giving anything.
Here’s a few scriptures from the Bible Whether you want to read it or not, is 100% up to you.
