Understanding hard limits is a superpower.
So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Psalm 90:12 KJV
Depth
Often, we don’t realize the depth of our actions. Scratch the surface and you will find, being kind to someone is the best thing you can do for yourself. 😉
The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.
Proverbs 11:17 KJV
Slacker
Are you a slacker?
Are you a worker?
Are your actions honorable?
Are your actions deplorable?
At some point, you will be able to answer YES to every one of these questions. Keep in mind, no matter what today holds, tomorrow holds another chance.
He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
Proverbs 10:4 KJV
Association
Your associations determine your opportunities.
Your opportunities determine your possibilities.
Your possibilities determine your life.
People who consistently focus on other people are creating distraction not opportunity.
Seek out and hang out with people who expand your life.
Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
Proverbs 9:6 KJV
Resist
Show up and do the work.
Steward your possessions and your position.
Resist the temptation to measure yourself against the success of others.
But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped. [3] For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
Psalm 73:2-3 KJV

Proverbs 6:16-19 KJV

Some things are negotiable; some things aren’t.
