The Pain or The Gain- Change Your Focus
My first experience in a Labour Room in the Hospital is one I will not forget in a hurry. As a student nurse, I had the opportunity to assist in a child delivery. I could see the pain written all over the woman's face as she was exhausted but she had to persevere, why? There was a life at stake. She went through such a hard experience just to bring a Life to earth. Immediately the child was out, other was as if she never experienced pain moments ago. Obviously she was tired but that did not stop her from being happy for becoming a mother.
Hello everyone, welcome to another motivational day. Today I want to teach us how we can get through situations in life just by changing your focus. I gave a true life story above so we could learn some lessons about life. It is a well established fact that hardwork is the key to success. Now most times, we put in a lot of effort in the things we do and in the current situation, it looks as if nothing is coming forth. You go through the PAIN but there is no obvious GAIN and what happens normally is that we quit.
This can be averted only if we change our focus like the story I shared above; the woman was willing to endure all the pain and trauma because her focus was on the Gain (the incoming child). If you have a vision, that should be your focus, do not focus on the process as much as you focus on the goal you want to achieve. I know it is easier said than done but it's worth it. I will end with this verse of the Bible:
Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
