As we are now in the month March we can say that almost a quarter of the year is done already! I don’t know about any of you, but so much seems to be going on, and all at the same time! If I’m honest I have been fighting to maintaining mental clarity. Thankfully I get to re-listen to and edit my podcast “The LittleRose Podcast.” The topic for week’s episode was the “FOMO: Fear Of Missing Out.” I have to say recording podcast episodes on a regular basis you can forget what was discussed. Having to listen to them again for editing purposes helps me to fully benefit from what was discussed. It is my desire to not only create content, but to also grow and learn from the content I create. As I record weekly podcasts and work at my church two days a week I am still pursuing other employment opportunities. I am currently awaiting a response from another company regarding a part-time job. I have actually been waiting for a response from this company for quite some time which leads me to wonder if I ever will receive one. Nevertheless the delay had given me time to work through my mindset on being an entrepreneur.
Daily working towards building my brand/business has forced me to look at the way I think and how my current mindsets limit my advancement. When you have spent so much of your life thinking and believing a job was the sole avenue to build a life and accumulate wealth launching out into the unknown as an entrepreneur can really be unsettling. Thankfully yesterday at church I was reminded of what the Word of God says in Deuteronomy 8:18. It says “But remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms His covenant, which He swore to your ancestors, as it is today.” The book of Deuteronomy is a book of instruction, caution, warning and encouragement for the children of Israel. They were about to the cross the Jordan river and possess the promise land. This was the very land the Lord swore to give their ancestor Abraham. The Lord was reminding them that it is “I”, the Lord your God, who is giving you the power and ability to lay hold of the promise land and produce wealth. He was letting them know He would bless the work of their hands as long at they continue to put Him first and honour the covenant He made their ancestor Abraham.
As I read this scripture it is rather difficult for me to conceive that wealth can be build through an idea or any type of business venture I choose to pursue. The stability of a paycheque eases the inner turmoil of having to face the unknown, even though I know nothing is a hundred percent secure. Needless to say my faith is being stretched! You hear of people having a idea and building a multi-million dollar company or at the very least a successful small business. I am praying to God for vision regarding my business. I know no one who has ever built a successful business. No one in my family has ever achieved anything other than job. No one in my family has ever build anything or produced wealth, yet God is positioning me to do just that!
In this season of great change I have to be committed to learning new things and unlearning old ones to be better equipped to build the business God desires for me. I will continue to share this process with you all although it is immensely stretching, and at times overwhelming.
I pray reading this encourages you to seek God for vision and ideas that will propel your life and finances to the next level.
Blessings,
LittleRose
