QUOTE OF THE DAY: “WHERE PLANS ARE FUZZY, STEPS WILL BE DIFFICULT TO TAKE”
ANCHOR TEXT: “Then the Lord replied: “Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it”
Habakkuk 2:2.
raying, studying, planning etc is just the beginning of turning any dream to reality. But taking relevant practical steps is the stage that will ultimately make those plans come true. One of the things that make life difficult is poor understanding of life and its dynamics. You cannot run with what you do not understand.
You cannot pursue a vision that is not clear. Therefore, to run the race of life effectively, plans, visions, goals must be as clear as possible. This was the first directive God gave to prophet Habakkuk. A good vision needs the input of others, and for the sake of those that may want to run it with you, for the sake of those who may want to assist, it must be as clear as it possibly can be.
The challenge now is: how do you simplify your plans? How do you make it easy for people to run with? First, you must document those plans; ‘write the vision’ Habakkuk 2:2b, then present it in a readable and understandable form.‘…make it plain’. Somebody will be sent to help you run your vision but the person needs to understand and be convinced of what to run with. What you want people to invest their money, time, integrity and energy on must be very clear to them.
Break that big and complex goals into measurable and practical objectives, follow through and come up with steps that must be taken to achieve it. Ask yourself; what must I do or which steps must I take to get’ what I want.
