On rainy days like today when I have a number of things all planned to do, I remember a bit from a book I read (then wrote it down and placed it in the drawer of my night stand):
There's always going to be some person or reason for you to think you're unable or it's okay for you to stop what you're doing.If you allow that thing to stop you once, it opens the door for other things to stop you at another time.Don't allow anything to stop you from finishing your tasks or reaching your goal.As long as you're able, keep going!
It's true....
Some days you wake up and a random headache stops you from getting stuff done. The following day the rain falls and you decide to sleep in or simply stay off the road. Maybe the next day a bad mood slows you down....but if you allow those thing to stop your progress then you've wasted just about three days.
Three days that could have been used for business calls, email responses, finishing that paper or starting that research.
More often than not it's consider procrastination, but sometimes it's as if things just are working against the progress. In my opinion, all the things that try to steer you away from getting things done, are mini-tests or challenges God sends you to see if you're going to keep going.
They all present the chance for you to prove your strength and keep working for what you want. All giving you the chance to overcome minor obstacles, and to make you more prepared to overcome the bigger ones that tend to come with success.
Each challenge no matter how small, is aimed at making you stronger. Whether it's the hater who says you can't do it, shouldn't do it or don't deserve it; or the course of events that all seem to be making the final product further out of reach......keep going!
I'll admit, maybe the challenges keep coming because God's trying to tell you 'not yet'....but the only way you'll know for sure if that's the case is if you have faith!
Otherwise, keep moving, because you really don't know how close you are to the end when you decide to quit!
