A Diary of the Heart, A Memoir of the Soul

A wise man once told me “A great entrepreneur isn’t the one who gets to where they want to be, but the ones who are never satisfied where they are.” This came at a time where I seemed to be frustrated with the whoas of life. It doesn’t take me long to go from a feeling of being “high off life” to becoming a manic depressant. With high expectations of one’s self the process for reaching perfection is unending.  And as a natural born daydreamer, enough is never enough for me. Perfection will always be sought after even if it might be unobtainable. To me nothing is impossible, but the frustrations sets in when the vision you have for your life doesn’t line up with God’s timeline for your life. The bible says it is impossible for God to lie and if so, and the desires of my heart are fully obtainable, then I anticipate a harvest and live with expectancy.

I’m currently learning and trying to understand how and why success isn’t measured by items but growth. I am successful if I benefit from a situation through gain and not always money but also access. Poverty is not merely a lack of finances yet a lack of resources.

As we enter into the last stretch of 2012, I encourage you to finish strong! Press toward the goal to win the prize for that which God has called. Everyday definitely isn’t a mountain and all the others, I’m not stuck in the valley. But I must admit, the completion of climbing the mountain brings a feeling of fulfillment, and even in gazing from the valley, I can still appreciate the smell of the lily.
