A Sinner & A Fighter

I am often the cause of my own pain; My own bad habits leading me to distress from lack of progress.

Life gets me down these days because I’m noticing those in my love circle advancing in ways that I desire to, forcing me to combat a new demon – jealousy.

I quickly remind myself that I would not wish such self-pity and loathing for anyone. There is a large difference between being self-aware and having depressing thoughts about yourself.

Being self-aware is having knowledge and comes with maturity, which is a powerful tool…as long as you USE IT. For instance, I know that I need to put money somewhere I cannot touch it in order to save – so why not open a restricted account and set up automatic transfers?

ACTION IS REQUIRED. It is not enough to want it, think about it, plan it and talk about it; I must DO IT.

CONSISTENCY IS REQUIRED. We cannot give up. There are no shortcuts with God. We must do what is called of us, always.

PERFECTION CANNOT BE ACHIEVED.

THE PAST IS THE PAST.

GOD DOES NOT INTEND FOR US TO LIVE IN GUILT.
Do not be afraid of your shortcomings; Do not hide from them; Grow from them.
