LEADERSHIP COURAGE
There are times in our lives it feels like failure. It seems as if we are falling, but, we really are flying. Have faith and trust the process to continue.
When Napoleon Hill said, “Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve,” he actually gave us a great philosophy to live by in order to be more successful.
Are you going to take his advice and let your mind be your greatest ally or reject it and allow it to be your greatest enemy?
You were shown the destination, the glory but probably not the process. There is a process. Trust the Process
Why trusting the process?
Trusting the process is about accepting that hardships will happen along the journey to success, but having the confidence that every lesson is bringing you one step closer to fulfilling your purpose in life.
Whether you want to believe it or not, failure is not necessarily a bad thing. It is just the proof that you are trying your hands on something worthwhile.
When God is ready to move you forward, He will make the situation around you seemingly uncomfortable, preparing you. Preparation time is compulsory for your growth. Growth is always laced with some uncomfortable moments.
Joseph saw the moon, the sun and the stars bowing for him in his dreams, he never saw the pit, he never saw his coat of many colours removed from his body, rolled in the blood of animal, he never saw himself in slavery at Potiphar’s house and the prison experience yet. The path to glory may sometimes be laced with unpleasantness.
Always remember, the distance between vision and manifestation is infested with mistakes, errors, denials, betrayals, backstabbings, failure, disappointments, tears, mockery, abandonments, accusations.
It should have been Saul versus Goliath. David lacked size and experience but he trusted God to take care of the outcome.
It was crazy for David to attack the giant Goliath given David size and age, but he did it anyway. David saw an opportunity in the size of Goliath, that he was too big for him to miss.
While it's an inspiring story of triumph over adversity, the lesson is as conventional as it gets. In the end, everyone loves the beautiful story of the underdog.
As we are already set on the year 2023, whatever your mind can conceive, it can achieve, if you don't look back, that is the law of Success.
Thank you for reading.
