The Process and The Outcome

Ecclesiastes 11:6(Message Bible)

Go to work in the morning and stick to it until evening without watching the clock. You never know from moment to moment how your work will turn out in the end.

We all want to succeed at whatever we do. We also believe that we will succeed at whatever we do.

We see ourselves living our best life and we work hard to get to that place.

But for most of us, success doesn’t happen overnight. It can be the gap between were we and were we want to be that can be frustrating.

Frustration Gap – This is the gap between desire and outcome, especially if unexpected problems happen that can cause us to alter or delay our plans.

The Process.

Process – A series of steps taken in order to achieve a particular end.

The problem with the process is that sometimes it’s not fun, it takes discipline to stick with anything.

1. Fitness and Nutrition

2. Starting a business

3. Going to school

4. Financial planning

5. Family and Raising kids

6. Looking for a job

How to make the process better:

1. Congratulate yourself on seemingly small achievements.

2. Find humor on what you do, don’t take yourself too serious.

3. Have intrinsic motivation, encourage yourself.

4. Extrinsic motivation, have people in your life to encourage you.

5. Try not to compare your journey to other people’s journeys.

6. Stop worrying as much about the end results.

7. Believe you will get there.

8. Enjoy what you do.

9. When you feel like giving up, remember why you started.

10. Always do your best

11. Realize your best might look different some days.

12. Be patient with yourself.

The Outcome – The final product or end result

When we see or talk to some people, we only see the results, we didn’t see the work that was put in, the patience, the failures.

Same with us, people see where we are, they didn’t see how far we have come, the things we had to endure.

So, hang in there, you didn’t come this far to just come this far, you got this, we got this.

The Process and The Outcome, we will get to our destination, let’s just keep believing, working, and improving.

Peace
