ANOTHER CHANCE TO BEGIN TO "THINK AND GROW RICH" IN 2010: CHOOSING THE WRONG VOCATION

Greetings,

The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. (DEUT. 28:12)

Welcome once again to Let's Talk where we are taking a look at the thirty-one major reasons for failure. Our text of study is "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. We have another chance to begin in 2010. We will discuss how choosing a wrong vocation can adversely affect our chances of reaching success.

Do you love what you do for a living? Would you continue to pursue your career even if you were no longer getting compensated? These are the questions that help us determine if we are in the right vocation or not. If we are not absolutely passionate about what we do to earn our living, we will never achieve the goals that would lead us to success.

We must take on the role of a servant in order to be fulfilled. We were created to serve one another. To illustrate this truth, think of the feeling you get after you have helped someone in need. If it had not been for what you did, no telling what would have become of that person you've helped.

There is no gratification like appreciation. If we know that someone appreciates the things we do for them in our serving, that makes it all the better. Anyone can do anything for a little while. But in order to walk in success, we must choose a vocation that gives us no greater pleasure than when we are serving in the role that vocation calls for.

If we choose a vocation that seems like play, we will succeed and at a rate we would not believe if we did not experience it ourselves. What I me is this, if you are passionate about cooking and about helping the homeless, open a restaurant and feed the homeless one day a week. This vocation would not seem like work, more like play, because it is what you like to do.

When we learn to use our gifts to help others, the compensation will follow. Our gift will make room for us. We may use our gift to solve a problem in one area and that same gift will be requested of us from somewhere else, and come with great compensation. When we serve from our heart, a right heart, using the gifts we are blessed with, we will always succeed.

According to Napoleon Hill in "Think and Grow Rich", "No man can succeed in a line of endeavor which he does not like. The most essential step..... is that of selecting an occupation into which you can throw yourself wholeheartedly."

That's all for this issue of Let's Talk. Join me again tomorrow when we will discuss the lack of concentration of effort. I welcome your feedback. Please leave me any comments and/or questions and let me know what’s on your mind. If you know anyone who would benefit from this information, please share this site with them.

Until next time,

God Bless
