Goal Oriented? Do Not Look At Others.

Focus and no distraction are the pillars which can help you to achieve a goal you desire. When you begin to look at others, you may start comparing yourself to them, you get distracted from your original plans, or you may even forget what you planned to do. 

Do not look at others does not mean don't aspire to reach certain heights people have reached, it doesn't mean do not take mentors for guidance, it simply means do not think of what others will say about you when you are striving to achieve your goals which are in line with the will of God.

In the same vein, when we go to God's presence to receive from Him, FOCUS on Him and forget about every one and everything and look up to Jesus and we will receive from Him.

 The word of God says in Psalm 125:1-2, that,
‭‭NKJV‬‬
[1] Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the heavens. [2] Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, So our eyes look to the Lord our God, Until He has mercy on us.

This should be our everyday desire; to know God and make Him known.
