Becoming a Go-getter

Lessons from my QuietTime:
Becoming a Go-getter
“I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 3:14
Who is a go-getter?
A go-getter is a person who is passionate about pressing toward the attainment of their goals or objectives to succeed. Apostle Paul was a go-getter who was determined to strive toward the achievement of his ultimate goal regardless of challenges. Go-getters will stop at nothing to get what they want.
But before you can become a go-getter, you must have a goal. What is your goal? What do you want to accomplish? If you do not have a goal, you can’t become a go-getter.
Let’s consider 3 factors that will help you to become a real go-getter:

1. Goal Setting
   The first step to becoming a go-getter is to set a goal. Define what you want to achieve or accomplish.
   Goal setting gives you a clear direction. It gives you a sense of where you are heading and what you want to achieve. If you have a clear-cut goal, then you are under the command of the goal you have set. Every person should at least have ten-year, five-year, and one-year goals. Then you can subdivide your one-year goals into months, weeks and days! By so doing, you have a sense of compulsion to achieve your goals.
2. Determination
   A determined person will always be a go-getter. How determined are you in the pursuit of your goals? There is no excuse for a determined person! After all, in the kingdom of God, there are no excuses. No believer is permitted to give excuses. As all things are possible or achievable to believers! The Bible says, “… If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”
   Mark 9:23
3. Take a bold action!
   A real go-getter is bold! He is prepared to take action steps towards the realisation of his goals. You become a go-getter by working toward the attainment of your goal. Yes, sometimes it may be difficult or unrealistic to accomplish your goal but don’t be perturbed. Just take small steps towards it. Achieving a small fraction of your goals is better than not achieving anything at all.
   In Matthew 25, we are told about the
   unprofitable servant who was cast into outer darkness because he could not obtain any profit. Achieving nothing at all is unacceptable!
   I decree and declare that you will become a real go-getter in Jesus’ mighty name.
