Whatever level you are now, is not your rest, so don't settle there like concrete.  It is dangerous to remain stagnant, because after some time you become comfortable where you are and come up with excuses why things cannot change.
 
Begin to initiate progress...no matter how small the steps may be.  You will be surprised how fast you will rise to heights beyond your imagination.  You can change whatever you don't like in your life by thinking of how to introduce something new.  You have the power to change your failure into success.  It simply begins in the mind.  Once you start thinking of a way out, ideas will begin to flow into your mind and in a short while, you know the next step to take.
 
Change the thought "there is nothing else I can do."  Think in terms of possibilities.  You can do all things through Christ that gives you strength!  Change does not just happen...it must be initiated by someone.  As we transition into 2010, come up with ideas and things you can do differently to make your life better.  It might be going back to school or starting a small business or improving the skills you have....do something!  Start initiating changes that will take you from where you are to where you ought to be.
