Do you keep a steady course at work?

Scripture: Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us (Hebrews 12:1).

Today’s Thought: Keep a steady course in business by choosing three action steps each month that will make the biggest difference toward achieving your long-range plans. Each day, focus on work that advances these goals. Step by step, you will stay on track toward meeting them.

One reason for losing focus is plain old fatigue. Effective managers will maintain a healthy balance at work. Like a marathon runner, who hold a steady pace that can be maintained for miles, you must work at a pace that allows time for rest and leisure.

Save time each week for a date with your spouse, time with the kids, and time alone with the Lord. Schedule it in your planner, and keep your commitments. Run a steady course at work and finish well.

When you walk, your steps will not be impeded; and if you run, you will not stumble (Proverbs 4:12).

Long-range goals are accomplished through short-term actions.
