Work Like An Ant
(This Post is Borrowed from (Proverbs of Wisdom.com)
Proverbs 6: 6 Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! (NIV)
Now I have done this I put rocks around an ant hill. I sat and watched what they did. (I know you already guessed it). They went over, around, below, the rocks until they got to the other side. They did not stop and curse it (at least I didn’t hear them) , or give up. They just kept moving until they got to the other side. I know I am mean at times. But I put more rocks in front of other ants. You know what they did the same thing.
What if we were that focused on our goals! What if we were so clear on where we are going that we don’t even get bothered by it. What if we just “kept on stepping”? When we set a time to work on our goals. we need to act like the ant.
Get that mental picture of the ant just running along singing “Ant no stoppin’ us now!” I know how the song goes but we can change it to plant a new photo in our mind!
