The Joy of Winning through the Pain of Struggle

One of the masteries of success is the ability to focus on the goal ahead. Focusing on the goals and the desired outcome of every endeavor that you have set your heart and mind to acheive. What is the desired results that you would like to accomplish? What is the thing that you would most like to see acheived in your life, if money were no object? Sometimes we get so focused on the "HOW" that we talk ourselves out of the "WHAT". In my life I have set major goals that human reasoning can not comprehend. Why not set the mark high? Why be modest in my desires? God promised me that he would give me the desires of my heart. Not anyone elses heart. If they desire mediocrity then go ahead. I dare to believe that God is able to do above all that I can ask or think. That lets me know that if I think high and set and focus on what the world calls impossible God has promised to out do THAT! WOW! I'm reminded of these famous words
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frighten us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

So go out and do what GOD has gifted you to do and be and if you have not discovered that gift then began to seek the gift giver. God promises us that our gifts will make room for us.
