Ever been so focused on "the big picture" that you forgot how to live a normal, day-to-day life? I certainly have, and it never led anywhere good.  I even went so far as to forget that my calling, whatever it may be, was going to revolve around people in some respect.

Being hyper-focused on your calling or purpose isn't inherently a bad thing, but it can ultimately be a hindrance to obtaining the very results you want to see. So which comes first: relationship with God or your purpose?
