GO FOR WHAT YOU WANT WITHOUT RESERVATIONS – PART 2

Member Updates: My sincerest apologies for the not writing for so long. I was out of town for most of this time. The places I was in had no reliable internet facilities so I could not post this newsletter. I have also been busy with my studies: I just attended the classes for my third module two weeks ago – you have to attend ten to complete the programme – and am now working on my assignments. I am also working on getting my drivers license and have just upped my efforts at writing the script to my new book, both goals I want to have attained by December 31st.

GO FOR WHAT YOU WANT WITHOUT RESERVATIONS – PART 2

A few months ago I wrote an article titled Go for what you want without reservations. Though today’s article is in no way a continuation of my previous article, I would like to use the same title for today’s article.

In today’s article I am going to share with you 3 principles that you can use to go for what you want without reservations – and get it. You can find the story I refer to in my illustrations in 2 Kings 2:1-11.

Principle 1: Know what you want

This is very important. Even if you do not tell it to anyone, be sure that you know what it is that you want. Elisha wanted to be Elisha’s successor and was able to articulate it very clearly.

Principle 2: Be prepared to do whatever it takes for you to get what you want

Run after what you want; gather the resources, find the people, learn the skill, create the time, do whatever it takes for you to get what you want. Elisha was ready to follow Elijah wherever he was going because he knew that that was the only way that he could get the mantle of leadership that was on Elijah.

Principle 3: Ignore the voices…

… no matter how loud they become. There are voices of discouragement everywhere. You must choose to ignore these voices and go for what you want anyway. Elijah repeatedly instructed Elisha to stay but he followed him. The other prophets could have disrupted his attention but he answered them, “Do not speak of it.

Going for what you want is going to require you to know what you want, but above all, you have to Be prepared to do whatever it takes for you to get what you want and learn to ignore the voices.

Be Inspired.
