When did you forgot about the big picture?

One day the Chamber of Commerce in a small town invited a successful businessman to come and speak. The local economy was bad and they were discouraged, so his job was to motivate them.

He took a large piece of white paper and made a red dot in the center of it. “What do you see?” he asked the audience. One person replied, “I see a red dot.” The speaker said, “Fine, but what else do you see?” Others chimed in, “A red dot.” The speaker asked, “Don’t you see anything else besides the dot?” The audience responded with a resounding “no!” The speaker said, “You’ve overlooked the most important thing; you’ve missed seeing the sheet of paper!”

Then he went on to explain that in life we are often distracted by small, dot-like failures and experiences. They keep us from seeing the blessings and successes that are more important than the disappointments that try to monopolize our attention and drain our energy.

Opportunity and obstacles—they go together like macaroni and cheese or fish and chips. Now I don’t deny the reality that you will face opposition; however  just chose to focus on the opportunity it presented.

A poet once wrote, “Two men looked through prison bars. One saw mud, the other stars.”

What are you looking at?

Are you so preoccupied with what is that you’ve lost sight of what can be?

If so, you need to step back and pray to see the bigger picture.

Remember these words, where you are is not who you are because who you are is greater than where you are. Agree?  O.k. Good.

Lets Get up and get going to a better financial life.
