Are you getting things done that you need to each day, or do you have so many distractions that you leave much unfinished?
If outside influences easily distract you from your work, or if you have a tendency to let your mind wander, remind yourself that God has given you dominion over the powers of your mind. You can close your mind to irrelevant things. You can concentrate easily at any time for as long as you need to complete a job.
Give your thought, interest, and attention wholeheartedly to the task at hand, and focus your energies on what you desire to accomplish. This is the secret of successful achievement.
Are your days hectic and overcrowded? Sometimes we manage to get involved in so many activities that the demands on our time and energy leave us pushed and depleted. Stop to take inventory.
First of all, be still and seek to become aware of the indwelling presence of God. Once you do, you will immediately find yourself relieved from a great deal of stress and strain.
Seek guidance in choosing only essentials to direct your attention and energy toward. Put first things first, thus eliminating the trivial.
As children of God, made in the nature of our Creator, it is important to use our time, energy, and efforts wisely and creatively. Then we will show forth great accomplishments through the harmony and efficiency of our lives.
