Being the captain/leader of your life - do you sometimes forget that you are the captain/leader and go back to playing the game of life as the passenger or deckhand?
When it comes to your life, you are the captain, whether you choose to act like one or not. The captain is the captain of the ship, when the weather is good or the weather is bad. In bad weather, he remembers he is the captain and makes the necessary adjustments to get his ship, his crew, and his passengers safely and happily into harbor. He may not enjoy every minute of his journey but he is required to get the job done.
How many of us keep in mind that we are the captain/the leader of our life and keep steering the ship even in rough seas? Or are you one of those who prefers to hand the wheel to someone else and pretend that you are the passenger or even the deckhand?
When we forget who we are, and we forget where we are going, it is very easy to get off course and land where we are not wanting to go.
The captain of the ship does not see his destination until he is almost upon it.Yet, with his vision in mind, he has faith that by doing the right things over and over again, that he will arrive into the desired harbor. Then the drama of small or not so small events doesn't get to him.
You, just like the captain of the ship, need to have a clear vision by which you guide your life. The goal/the intention that you set for yourself is like the light house and you would be served well to remember to take incremental, consistent steps towards that light house.
Remember, the captain does not see the destination for the first 98% of the time - it is only when he is almost upon it that he sees the harbor.
Life is like that, you create the vision for what you desire your life to look like and then you must trust, have blind faith that by taking consistent right action, that you will arrive.
However when we forget where we are going and we do not see the destination right away, we can get pretty discouraged and sometimes we choose to abandon ship. That is not the solution.
Next time we will see how creating a powerful vision can pull you forward when you are not seeing the harbor.
