“I have suffered the loss of all things.” Php 3:8 NKJV  Stop and listen carefully to what some of the people around you are saying. Many of them express regret because they backed off from their dream of earlier years: a career not pursued, an opportunity left unseized, a relationship allowed to wither and die. Decades later they come back to it and think more a bout it. But for some, it’s too late. They can’t achieve their dream at any price. For others, the dream is possible but the price is much higher. In his book, Put Your Dream to the Test, Dr. John Maxwell writes: “Going after a dream is like climbing a mountain. We will never make it to the summit if we are carrying too much weight. As we enter each new phase of the climb, we face a decision. Do we take on more things to carry, lay down things that won’t help us climb, exchange what we have for something else, or stop climbing altogether?

“Whatever It Takes” “The sluggard craves and gets nothing, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.” Pr 13:4 NIV  " Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:  Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,  Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest ."

The poet William Arthur Ward said: “I will do more than belong—I will participate. I will do more than care—I will help....

“The plans of the diligent lead to profit.” Pr 21:5 NIV  The right thought. Thinking produces ideas, and ideas have incredible power and potential. But every idea begins as a “seed thought,” so you have to nurture and protect it. The right people. When you expose the right idea to the right people, great things happen. In their company it blossoms and becomes infused with possibility. The right e nvironment. In the right environment thinking is valued, ideas flow freely, fresh eyes are welcome, changes are expected, questions are encouraged, egos are checked, ideas stimulate better ideas, and thinking generates teamwork. The right time. The Emperor Hadrian said, “To be right too soon, is to be wrong.” While still in the stretching stage of an idea, present it without expectation, time frames, or rigidly defined goals. Why? Because if you try to implement your idea too early it may not survive. The right reason. J. P. Morgan said, “A man always has two reasons for doing anything...
