How to Compensate for Inability

Are you a person of enthusiasm? Do you anticipate each new day? Is life exciting? It can be if we will add the ingredient of dynamic enthusiasm!

Just as some people are physically paralyzed, MANY more people are paralyzed in their thoughts due to a lack of passion and enthusiasm. You must resist gloominess, overcome pessimism and reject the concept of personal limitation. Get enthusiastic about your own unique life TODAY, and watch new qualities and perspectives suddenly appear! Maybe your abilities, training and level of experience are less than others around you. Don't despair or dwell on that. Enthusiasm can close that gap and put you over the top. Remember, you can compensate for almost any lack in your life with dynamic enthusiasm and the willingness to fight for your dreams.

"The joy of the Lord is your strength!"

Consider asking God to guide you and show you His best as you follow the Action Steps for this week:

  1. Take time right now and each morning this week to visualize, "God is for me". Really see God being for you and visualize how much God loves you! What does it sound like, feel like, look like to know this?If you believe God is for you, who can be against you?

  2. Feelings do not precede actions. Rather, actions precede feelings. Act a certain way and you will create the emotion. Look around you and find all the things that excite you, soon enthusiasm will be born.
