Visionaries


It’s easy to give up when things don’t live up to your expectations. It’s another thing to stick to your guns and keep focused on your objective when things are perceived to be hard. When a person is a visionary that person does not quit when obstacles get in the way. Visionaries dig under, jump over, or crash through those obstacles to continue on to their objective. Imagine if our Lord and savior Jesus Christ gave up his ministry because he knew he would be scourged and crucified in order to achieve his objective which was to save the world from their sins and mend the breach between God and man. Now compare your situation to his and you will realize that what is going on in your life pales in comparison to what he endured to reach his goal. The best things in life are not easy and success is not going to be given to you on a silver platter, you have to work for it. Don’t complain when things are not coming to fruition by your expectations, go out, “get your hands dirty” and work on striving towards the goal that is set. An old boss of mine in the military once told me “if you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem” think about it.
