Ceilings...

We had a zone meeting with Jeremy last friday. Was really impacted by what he shared abt on ceilings we have set for ourselves, consciously or sub-consciously. So impacted that I called up Melinda on Tues nite and shared with her cos she missed it last fri...

This msg has been haunting me for the past week... I have been in my company for the past 2.5 years le... Have been taking it quite relaxedly... In the sense that I just do the minimal, such that wont get scolded by mgr or client. I know I can do better, but the resistance is very great and the motivation to break thru is not there... Cos in a few months time, I shld be out of here... So was really challenged by his msg that I just kept working and working for this week... Sleeping at 2+, 3 everyday and waking at 7 to go to work... So drained this week, but I know that I can do all things thru Christ who strengthens me.

But even as I continue to expound on this word, there are 2 more expansions which I feel that this word can be applied...

1) DUN let other ppl's 'ceiling' hinder you from breaking through!!!
Why is your breakthru dependent on others? You need to remove all baggages, leeches which are clinging onto you so that you can run and soar... At the rate that God has spoken to you. By allowing someone else's problems to be your problem, you'll always be slower... THen you see ppl ard you exceeding you, winning the race in front of you and you will become lethargic and give up... So in the 1st place, dun let ppl leech on you...

2) Dun set ceilings over other ppl...
Similarly, we shldnt help others to limit what they can do in Christ... We shld always challenge the ppl ard us, this will stir us to keep going also... As we challenge ourselves to break through each glass ceilings, we need to encourage and pull the rest of the ppl ard us to do the same also... Then it'll be fun and a joy for the ppl to be striving ppl and this is how we all breakthru and grow together...

Yep... So these are the things which are constantly bugging me.. And I am in office now.. But am leaving soon... going dinner then home... I can do it!!! I can excel... I can complete all the things which are outstanding... I can... I want to... I muz... Yeah!!!
