This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
Halfway to Winning – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. We are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. Proverbs 16:16 How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! We are on Day 1671 of our Trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote along with some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget:
Today’s quote is from Heinrich Heine, and it is: A daring beginning is halfway to winning.
Halfway to Winning
Everyone desires to succeed in every area of life. To achieve anything of significance in life, you must plan and then work that plan. When you plan, you must stretch yourself, and escape from your comfort zone. Planning is not enough, though. You must execute your project with a passion for success and for completing that plan. Get beyond getting ready to get ready and take action. For most of us, we need to be sufficiently motivated to take action and then have the inner drive to continue through with perseverance when we run into obstacles. If our passion is not strong enough when we begin, we will not make the bold choices needed to succeed ultimately. Set your mind to what you desire for your outcome, and then boldly go forward. Like a boulder rolling down a hill, it is hard to get moving, and the progress is slow and difficult. As boulder gains momentum, it will gain speed and veracity the farther it goes. Be daring, be bold, and make an impact on the world. This is our vocation as citizens of God’s kingdom.
And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.
As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.’
