Move on, be better

In the pursuit of great things, in the adventure to create and in the seeking to help others via business one finds themselves in the path that is scatted with many obstacles. This is the life and the work of an entrepreneur, the expectation of the pursuit, so I get that, I get the struggle, I get the challenge. And I am up for it. I, we and our team will win, maybe not ever battle, but we will win the war, you can be assured of that achievement. Winning is what we were made for, the battle is the strengthening of our resolve and the hardening of our mettle.
Why did I decide the pen (type) this little tryst? Well this past few months and weeks have been a battle and I need to vent a bit and gain some perspective before I do something that I might regret later. It is those thoughts of action before the results that would lead me, us and we, to an unexpected outcome. We do not look to create unexpected results from actions that were based solely on emotion and others selfless acts of “unprofessional” methods. Others may intent to do us harm they may not understand the harm they can inflict on themselves as well as others. But they pursue harm none the less, with blind ambition and reckless actions.
The reason for this tryst is to vent, to allow for processing and to allow for the grace of my Lord to wash over me as I ponder the next steps in our adventure. For it is the grace that passes all understanding that is needed in times such as we have just passed through. This grace will allow me and us to move to the next battle as winners and triumphant in our resolve and focused on the task ahead. I personally cannot allow for the actions of others to drag me into the pit of despair and intolerance, which is where others reside.
So, onward and upward, on to the next phase of this glorious journey that we are all on. In this little article my hope is that when you feel the same way, desperate and wanting to rearrange others DNA. That you take pause, as I am doing my best to do, and refocus, remember who you are, re group, surround yourself with good people that support you and remember that your ideas, your thoughts and the desires of your heart were placed there by a higher power than you and I will succeed where others will not.
Push forward, remember, focus and see the vision of the future not the past. That is where they reside, you and I do not.
