Floods and Rivers

Quoting from a book that i read...

"Floods and rivers are both bodies of water. Floods damage. Rivers are useful in many ways. The difference? Focus."

Rivers - flowing in a clear direction. Intensify.
Floods - flowing in every direction. Diversify.

Leaders must learn how to channel their time and energy toward a focused vision

Here is how this principle works... What you focus on expands. If i were to tell you to focus on finding Suzuki Swift cars on the road, you will notice them everywhere because what you focus on expands. So, as leaders, we should focus our time, energy and resources. Expansion is a by-product of realizing, just because we can, doesn't mean we should.

So these questions remains...

1. How many activities are you trying to perform?
2. How thin are you spreading yourself?
3. Are you a flood or a river?

Blessed New Year!

Welcome 2007!!! It's back to work today!

2006 has passed with many life's lessons that has brought joys and sadness. One thing remains...God's faithfulness in all circumstances and situations! I can't help but to reflect and give thanks to God for his providence and blessings in 2006, how he has guided me and taught me as i struggled with life's expectations. Indeed, i have grown and i am excited as i looked into this new year in anticipation that my God will continue his good works. Praise be to God for he is good!!!

Hallelujah!

"For i know the plans i have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
