Excuses

“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” Romans 13:11

 The scripture text, in which I have referenced above, has been one of the scripture texts that have had an effectual way of reminding all us, if we stay asleep for too long, everything that we have dreamt about will pass us by. Were reminded so often how this is the time to acquire what is rightfully ours and to use this time wisely. The time now is “HIGH” for each and every one of us to awake out of a sleep of excuses. Excuses hinder progress and if continued will hinder your perception of who you are. Excuses are like darts, you aim at a target, but often times you miss. And every time you miss excuses seem to follow.  We can’t get everything right. It is impossible too, but you can’t go around blaming others for your lack of confidence. A person, who digs ditches, will soon be the one who falls in.  I rather blame myself first than blame someone else who has done what they were conditioned to do. Our passions are capable of taking us to higher heights, but excuses stunt growth. In order to be capable of moving to the next level, maturity of one’s own actions has to be realigned, with a sense of knowing and not reliving. Mature people blame no one for what they can do themselves. If you have a plan in mind goes for it. Nothing is in your way unless you’re the one digging your own ditch!
