Doing what you love

I remember reading a book years ago about Micheal Jordan, the reason they say that he is so good is because he WORKS HARD at what was his GIFTING. The two together meant that he was able to perform at the highest level.

The other point that the book made was that some one might work harder that Micheal Jordan but without the GIFT they will never perform at the same heights, but they can still do a great job. Also a person with the gifting of Micheal Jordan without the WORK HARD ethic will never perform at the highest level and achieve the success of Micheal Jordan.

When I read this I was doing recruitment and by some measure I had some success I had become a Recruitment Manager so achieved more than most. But the only reason that I achieved that success was because I WORK HARD but I'd seen others work less and achieve more because they were gifted in that arena.
After reviewing this I decided to leave the industry and pursue my GIFT (PURPOSE).

I knew I loved business and wanted to know more about business so I placed my self in a arena to learn. I also keep my hard work attitude and with the two years the organisation that I help manage is performing stronger year by year. This QTR we hit our target with a month to go and achieved our best QTR ever recorded.

I say this  because I meet so many people working in a role / position that they don't enjoy. GUESS WHAT! If you remain there you will never perform at the highest level because you lack the passion because you are not working in the arena of your gifting (PURPOSE)

I am still working on this and have to at times turn down opportunities that pay more, because I know I would do OK but it is not my gifting so I will not enjoy if for long.

Don't waste your life chasing someone else dream go after your own.

Remember "God gift to you is life, what you do with that life is your gift back to God"
