Adjust The Sails!!!!





The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. The leader adjusts the sails. - John Maxwell


How often have we found ourselves complaining to others on the job, in the temple, barbershop, beauty salon, designated smoking area, and or water cooler? How often have the conversations ended with a barrage of answers that we and our peers felt would aid the situation or condition? Then, how often have we taken from that conversation what was needed, took the necessary steps to make the "powers that be" aware, and then walked out those steps or took action to follow through? (don't answer that) I challenge you this day....some situations haven't changed because THE change never came. THE change - meaning YOU. Your ears didn't harness the sound waves, your mind didn't process the wave, and or decode the frequency for your understanding just for YOU to choose to ignore the call. There was no mistake that the spiritual sands flowing past the "bottleneck" of the hourglass allowed you to be positioned for a time such as this. Nothing is by mistake and though you may have to take a chance, there is nothing presented by 'chance'. You are the head and not the tail...above and not beneath. Again, making the difference in YOUR world is setting a standard for the countless worlds of others around you. Don't just seek change or speak out of negativity...be the change. As stated before, why keep knocking on the door in desperation when you are the key to unlock that very door to destiny. The winds may be blowing, the rains might make it difficult to grip the helm, the howls of those same winds might cause you to have to yell with all that you've got. PLEASE don't miss your cue to scream back and give the command to adjust the sails. You are being positioned for greatness let your strengths come out in that moment. Don't just complain or silently hope for change...be the one that stands up and makes it happen. It's YOUR call to greatness!!!! Adjust the sails!!!!!! You can handle this!!!!
