The Daily Disturbance

How can I prevent settling for less.

By aiming H.I.G.H.

We looked at 4, lets complete the list of consequences from a life of settling.

"Do not be satisfied with the stories that come before you. Unfold your own myth." - Rumi

As global citizens striving for excellence, we are called to embrace God's plan for our lives and pursue the best in all aspects. Settling for less, whether in our personal or professional lives, can lead to various adverse consequences.

Lets look at 7 consequences of a “settling” approach, 4 today and 3 tomorrow (Though I do hope, after today, you would have dropped “settling” as a way of life completely!)

"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do." - Mark Twain

Let me give you 2 specific reasons today and 2 more tomorrow. What can you relate with?

From yesterday’s drawing I.N., we now look at 3 reasons why bridges are needed to pour O.U.T.

"The bridge you build today may be the path you walk on tomorrow." - Matshona Dhliwayo

Building bridges of connection in life is essential to life. Without them we have to means of refill ourselves and all the tanks in our life: physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, financial, etc. In their absence, we are also unable to pour anything out.
