Galatians 5:7 New International Version

[7] You were running a good race. Who cut in on you to keep you from obeying the truth? 

Ø  There are those that have survived in 2024 and those that have thrived achieved or failed.

Ø  To them who feel they have failed, it is one thing to fall another to dwell in failure,

Isaiah 43:18-19 KJV (King James Version)

[18] Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. [19] Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. 

Ø  To them have thrived, tried and it worked

Philippians 3:13 KJV

[13] Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

Enemies of Focus

1. Distractions - we all begin with clear paths, goals and principles but on the way we lose it. what you spend most of your money, time becomes your priority 

2. Disorder - Lack of order and discipline. Lack of Proper planning, not being organized, decluttering over accumulated staff.

3. Delays - When things don't happen fast enough, it stops progress and movement. Expectations from people will always not come according to our plan and time schedule.

4. Discouragements- on the way unplanned and unexpected setbacks hit our way. In life, 80% will not obey your plan

5. Doubt- when we feel we are not capable, or better enough, some people lose confidence in us, fail marriages, and businesses, interview, lose weight, and move out.

Mark 8:22-24 KJV

[22] And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him. [23] And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. [24] And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. 

5. Lessons to Capture

When you don't have a vision you always be led by the vision of others and never be independent to work and accomplish your own. Let's buy this, let's go here, let's shift to, let's... 

One of our biggest problems is you never committed to your vision board when everyone is stuck they call you but when you need them no one is available.

When you don't feel good enough you will lose your focus and leave it to follow someone else vision.

When you don't have a clear focused vision you get the wrong results and perspective of your vision. What you see determines how respond and interpret. When you see a Goliath you run instead an opportunity for your next promotion from a Shepherd boy to a king. 

Your commitments are not of value, being busy doesn't mean you adding value. Focus on what's adding a score to your achievement and value on your board.

How to build a quality vision

1. Write down the idea - it is a commitment to self

2. Vision must be clear - Main things remain main

3. Produce action - It  must inspire you and provoke you to work hard (make u rise from sleep)

4. Vision should be measurable on time.

5. Must lead to reality – Realistic and achievable

6. Requires patience - Stay on course, fall and rise, push towards your goals.
