These days I see 2 different kinds of people. Those that are content with what they know, what they can only do and those that are not content with what they know or what they can only do. They hunger for more, they want to be able to do more than they could do before.

Here's the thing: that guy who only focuses on what he can do and does not bother about other things will never be more than he is now because when the wave changes, he is stuck with that one knowledge of that thing he knows how to do! Because he would not know how to relate other things to what he can only do thereby not knowing how to add more taste to his craft.

On the other hand, the guy who does more than what he can only do will surely be more than he is now because he has a wider knowledge of things and when the wave changes, he knows how to add taste that would fit the wave.

What am I simply saying? "Don't be stuck doing only what you know how to do!" Hunger for more, learn more and do more because if you only do what you can do, you will never be more than you are now and you won't be known for more.

Ponder on this...

Have a great week.

Situations will come, trials will come. But here's the thing,your situation is not a forever business and your trials, they have an expiration date.
Sometimes when our hearts get broken not necessarily due to relationships, it could be due to other situations, we think our hearts will never heal. When we are going through certain struggles and challenges, we feel like we will never get out of this impossible struggle. It's like life has finally caught up with us.
But here is the basic fact:
You my friend have to stop thinking you'll be stuck in your situation forever. We feel like our hearts will never heal or we'll never get out of this impossible struggle. Don't confuse a season for a lifetime, even your trials have an expiration date.
Here is another thing:  Oftentimes, we confuse a season for a lifetime. This situation, this trial you are going through is only for a season. Just as seasons be it winter, summer or Autumn come and go so also our situations and trials will come and go. I know most times it becomes difficult to believe that we will get out of that situation, we just need to hold on. Hold on to that faith on the inside and never forget that it is only a season that will soon give way for a better season. It is not a lifetime business. It may seem longer than even a normal season, that still doesn't change the fact that it is a season that will go away.
You should just hold on to this fact that you will grow, life will change, things will work out.
It doesn't matter the situation you are going through, the phase or season, you will surely grow, life will surely change and things will surely work out.
P.S Don't forget to trust God.
