How Far Will You Go?

I've been wanting to write this blog for a while now but have recently been inspired by some people to really ask this question; "How far are you willing to go to be the best?"

Whatever your field is, ask yourself this question, are you daily, doing everything you can to be the best at what you do? Whether you are a pastor, manager, chef or mechanic do you strive constantly to take yourself, your ministry or other people to the next level?

Think about this, in medieval times warriors that did battle daily would spend hours sharpening not only their skills, but also their weapons to be effective in battle. If your doing battle daily in any arena, do take time to sharpen yourself?

If you are a speaker, do you watch videos of yourself, critiquing your content, your stage presence, mannerisms and even speech? If your a manager, do evaluate your meetings and how people respond to you?

My point is, that in order to be successful, you will often have to put in extra time and effort to bring the best out of yourself and others. I have no doubt in my mind that Jesus was the best carpenter around, not just because He was God, but because Im sure He was willing to go the extra mile. Are you??
