Definisi SuksesDefinisi sukses yang benar :

To develop to your own maximum potential (mengembangkan diri kita ke masing masing potensi kita yang maximal)

Untuk menjadi menjadi berkat bagi yang lain (blessed to be a blessing)

Menjadi berkat bagi pekerjaan Tuhan

1 Col 1:16 For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.

Kesuksesan kita hanya karena berkat Tuhan

Mazm 127:1-2 Jikalau bukan Tuhan yang membangun rumah, sia sialah orang yang membangunnya. Jikalau bukan Tuhan yang mengawal kota, sia sialah pengawal berjaga jaga. Sia sialah kamu bangun pagi pagi dan duduk duduk sampai jauh malam dan makan roti yang diperoleh dengan susah payah sebab Ia memberikannya kepada yang dicintainya pada waktu tidur.

Imamat 26:15-16 Jikalau kamu menolah ketetapanKu dan hatimu muak mendengar peraturanKu, sehingga kamu tidak melakukan segala perintahKu. Dan kamu mengingkari perjanjianKu, maka akupun akan berbuat begini kepadamu yakni: Aku akan mendatangkan kekejutan atasmu batuk kering serta demam, yang membuat mata rusak dan jiwa merana. Kamu akan sia sia menabur benihmu karena hasilnya akan habis dimakan musuhmu

Saya tahu pilihannya, tapi saya tidak tahu apa ini yang terbaik buat saya ?

Step 1 Chose or Loose Pertimbangkan pilihan pilihan yang ada dan PILIHLAH !

who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does. James 1:6-8

Step 3 WHAT DO YOU WANT? Your vision

A MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION.“Joseph had a dream” Gen 37:5

Then the LORD answered me and said: “ Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry Habakuk 2:2

A Dream increases our potentialA dream helps us prioritizeA dreams makes us very focus and effectiveA dream predicts our future. Specific Purpose – not general statement.

‘think BIG start small’

BUT I AM NOT SURE WHAT IS THE BEST THING THAT I SHOULD BE DOING?

Look within you Talents, Experience

Look behind you What have you learned ?

Look around you What is happening to others ?

Look ahead of you What is the BIG PICTURE ?

Look above you What does God expect of you ?

Step 4. HOW ? WHAT CAN YOU DO TO ACHIEVE YOUR OBJECTIVE (Bagaimana saya

bisa mencapai nya ?)

If we do what we always do, we will always get what we always get.

Rencana kerja (Planning) – dan di tulis

FAILING TO PLAN IS PLANNING TO FAIL"Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it? …”Luke 14:28-31

MOTIVATION – STRATEGY = FRUSTRASI

Step 5. WHEN ? (TIME FRAME) Time frame to achieve the objective

Step 6. FOCUS

Step 7. PERSERVERANCE (GIGIH)Gal 6:9 Janganlah kita jemu jemunya untuk mengerjakan hal

yang baik, karena pada waktunya kita akan menuai.

Eccl 11:4 Siapa yang memperhatikan angin tidak akan menuai dan siapa senantiasa melihat awan tidak akan menuai

Big Success comes from Little Success
