Destinations that Matter

For one thing, I never like blogs till of recent. I always wanted to power bomb bloggers but I guess it’s my turned to be power bombed. So here is my try at a blog.

Blogs, Blogs, Blogs and more blogs! why do we need another blog? Well we do not need another blog and this is more like Frank Barone from Every Body Loves Raymond, when He gets published in readers digest and now Frank thinks he is a writer. All the while all he wanted to do was share thoughts from his perspective of life. I guess I am sharing how I see things and give my perspective on it whether right or wrong. First I want to say I am a PC, Windows Vista. You see there really are two kinds of people. There is a Mac person and they are that person that’s a pure genius, there smart in their field of life and excel in all they do. Pc’s take many uploads to get where a Mac person gets too. But there is hope you can be Windows XP and you are better off than a Vista person. For example my wife is a Mac and I am Windows Vista. She picks up everything like a sharp tiger and I am slow like a zebra. I am like those guys in Slap Shot the movie with the thick glasses where I am good at the one thing. Those guys in the movie Slap shot were good at creating havoc on the ice and scoring goals. My wife has the ability to do 100 things great but a PC person takes years of trial and error to achieve what a Mac person could do. There is nothing wrong with being a PC. I don’t drink coffee from star bucks and show up with my laptop while I sit on a star bucks couch and surf the web. That’s boring to me. I connect with the common man and like New York deli coffee in the blue cup with butter bread for a buck. Well that’s a little of my thought process. In this week’s blog I want to write about a topic that is on my heart, Are we enjoying what we are doing in life and are we reaching our potential.

Potential is that hidden gem in you that wants to be shaped but it could remain in the cave of your life if you’re not willing to work hard to achieve the results and become that gem. For many years I was a settler where I would just go to work clock in and clock out and never make a difference in the field I worked in. As well my personal goals would lay doormat like a book on a book shelf that you always want to read but you make excuses never to read the book. Right now there is talent in you that will never arrive to your destination unless you’re willing to work hard and never give up. Ask yourself this, where are you going in life? Every day I jump in the car for a destination. Where is the destination you are trying to go? In life where do you what to end up?

I want to be transparent sometimes I want to have that Dirty Harry one liners and say, Go ahead, Make my day! But I am too talkative and will keep talking and the other gunman would end up shooting me. So we have to understand our limitations and capabilities. I think in a sports mind. If you give me a math problem I am breaking it down in batting averages or field goal percentages. We all are different but we all want to have people like us and we want a pat on the back for encouragement. Here is the key if you want to get to that destination you must drive yourself there. You need personal drive and desire to work hard and remain faithful to the destination you want to go to. So I know I am a PC and Windows Vista at that so sometimes I don’t upload properly so I know I need to work much harder than others. So in this first blog post my encouragement to you is too write out a plan only for you and God. That plan will be the place in life where you’re trying to go. Really take time to think about it then pray and ask God for His guidance and then write out the plans that flow from your heart. You may be a Mac; you may be a Pc but at the end of the day you can get to that place, to that quote on quote destination but first you must learn this key word, faithful. Will you be faithful to get to your destiny, I am rooting for you and praying for you and look forward to hearing from you. Like the great singer, Johnny Cash said, Come along and ride this train.

On the Rebound,
