Get back on track

It’s crazy how you can gradually lose focus over time and not really realize when it’s happening. It doesn’t always have to be a drastic change. You may slowly drift away and lose focus and direction in life.

It’s good to take a step back and reassess your goals and values. This can help you regain clarity and purpose and allow you to move forward with a renewed sense of direction. It’s easy to realize that you’ve fell of the wagon, then stop caring completely and continue to do the things that are counterproductive to what you want for yourself.

It’s important to check in regularly with yourself to make sure that you are staying true to your goals, values, and priorities. If you haven’t been doing that, that’s ok. You just have to make the adjustments that are needed and aim to do better the next time around.

I think a lot of times when we are not happy, losing focus could be part of the reason. Stay on track towards your goals and everything else that could lead to happiness and purpose in your life. Get back on track, if needed. It’s possible.

Jobs are temporary, work is permanent

“Your job is what they pay you to do; your work is what you were born to do.” – Dr. Myles Munroe

As a former NFL player, I know that jobs are temporary. It’s a fun profession, but you soon learn that nothing is promised. Whenever you have a job, you are at the mercy of someone else and can get fired whenever. Your job might pay the bills, but your work is what fulfills you. You can never be fired from your work.

Jobs are needed at times to make money or even bring happiness, but I believe we have more to give than just that. We have God given gifts and other passions that we should follow. Pursue your work with passion and purpose, and you’ll find true fulfillment. Remember that your work is permanent.
