I think we all want to “fit-in” somewhere in life at some point.
Maybe it’s with a particular crowd we think are “cool.”
Maybe it’s where we think we can have the most impact on people. Or make the most money.
But where we really need to “fit-in” is exactly where we were created to be.
More often that not we think about ourselves first.
We look at a picture of us and several friends or family and immediately find ourselves to see how it turned out.
We start sentences with “I want” (you to do something for me). Our stories are typically geared around us or an encounter we’ve had lately.
You get the point.
Innovation.
Inspiration.
Motivation.
Other-ation.
They’re all just words that, when acted upon, can change the course of the world. Yeah, that’s all they can do…
We should all have a vision that guides us through life.
As leaders and entrepreneurs we are taught to cast a vision and keep casting it throughout our business life.
Our personal lives should be no different.
Conforming to the ways of the world can cause us to lose sight of what really
matters.
We never know what God has in store for us. And that makes it incredibly difficult to understand situations entirely.
I’ve been thinking about sharing this story for some time now, but never found the “right” time to do so.
Now is the time and it’s because of Bryan Allian’s recent post where he describes his experience and tells his story.
He, like I, was incredibly close to going to work for an awesome company.
