CHOOSE TO EXPAND

One day, on my flight to Brisbane, Australia, something happened that taught me a big lesson.

As we were taking our seats, one of the hostesses made an announcement that FREE WIFI was available on board and that there are instructions to access it right in the pocket of the seat in front of us.

I found the instructions and keyed the details in and straight up I got access to the WIFI. I was able to watch a LIVE football match, chat with my wife, and so on.

The shocking thing was, that was probably my 8th time on a Virgin Australian flight that same year and had no idea I could use free WIFI on it.

I am sure the same announcement was made on all the flights I boarded but I just didn’t pay attention enough to avail myself of the opportunity.

Many of us have information that could potentially change our lives around us. Some of them are even free but we just never pay attention or avail ourselves of them.

We tune off from the important people, programs, books, seminars, church messages, that could potentially change our lives yet have no idea.

Attention is one of the greatest commodities in life. What you give your attention to can determine your destiny.

I want to challenge you to look around you with intentionality, and pay attention to the things that matter.

Give attention to them, and avail yourself of the opportunities around you.

Refuse to be comfortable with what you know, and where you are now.

Choose to stretch. Choose to grow. Choose to expand your horizon.

Start reading the books on your shelf.

Start buying more books to read.

Start subscribing to podcasts.

Start attending webinars and seminars that will enrich you.

Befriend people of value who would add value to you.

Change your environment to match where God is taking you.

Give attention to the things that matter.

I believe in you.
