Sharing Resources to Help You Grow Personally, Professionally & Financially

Sometimes it helps to get a little dose of encouragement—along with a good cup of coffee!—to start the day. Today we discuss "challenge."

Hopefully the message below will help you get off to a good start for the week.  Please feel free to forward the newsletter on to others that you think would benefit from the content.

Challenge

---

Each and every one of us has been given incredible gifts from God. Gifts that allow us to do things in unique and amazing ways that no other person on this Earth can do.

Many of us are afraid to use our voices to speak up for what we know or feel to be right.

And, yet, many of us are afraid to use our voices to speak up for what we know or feel to be right. We are afraid to challenge the status quo for fear that there will be some negative repercussion for us personally.

Step out of your comfort zone and challenge the status quo.

As we move towards the end of this year, I would like to challenge each of you to step out of your comfort zone and raise your voice about how you see things differently and what you would like to see happen in the world around you. Just because your view is different, does not make it any less. Rather, taking time to challenge the status quo is one of the great ways to provide what I feel is the most valuable form of diversity—diversity of thought.

That brings us to this week’s question:

• Are you willing to challenge the status quo?

Thanks for sharing a bit of your time with me this Monday morning.  

Have a great week!
