Are you satisfied with the status quo-your life of mediocrity,stagnation and fruitfulness? Or you desire to live the life of your dreams? If you want the latter ,then it's time to concentrate on and work towards it. The apostle Paul says in
Philippians 3:13-14 King James Version (KJV)
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
The greatest achievers were not born with exceptional brains or physical strenght.You must strive for excellence in all you do and make the most of your life by working towards realizing the fullest potential. You are born to succeed,therefore believe in God and in yourself that you can achieve your life's dreams.

God has not created you to be a failure or to live a life of mediocrity. You must therefore not settle for less.He has endowed you with great talent and capability to attain any height in life. Hence ,he wants you to push beyond the status quo to something higher and deeper. He expects you to make a meaningful change in your life because without change there can not be growth,only status quo. Yet,the challenge becomes finding a reasonable way to determine exactly what needs to change and developing a plan or system that is measurable and ensures the change really happens.
The first important decision to make is to believe that status quo is unacceptable. Next ,take action because belief alone won't create the necessary change. Committing to making necessary changes require an element of risk. Unwillingness to take risk and make changes is accepting the status quo.
Here are some tips to help you make reasonable changes and move beyond your status quo.
(i) Write down your desired goals. Without limits,write down all you want to accomplish-your spiritual ,academic and business accomplishments you would like to see happen while moving forward.
(ii) Identify all steps it would take to accomplish each goal. Don't go to the second and third goal until you have identified all steps you should take to achieve the first goal.
(iii) Track your efforts, now that you have very specific actions to take to accomplish each goal,it is crucial that you establish a tracking system.each day,track actions you have identified against the actions you actually take.
Accountability is important here.As you hold yourself accountable,you will quickly realize that you begin to establish a rhythm.This rhythm becomes easier as the time passes and soon becomes a habit. Before you know it,you will see the desired results become reality.That begins to move you from status quo to significant change.
You must be diligent and persistent in your pursuit of achieving greater things,however to get to the pinnacle of greatness,you must know God ie being born again and ask for grace and wisdom to achieve good success.
May the Lord help us to achieve greater things in Jesus name. Amen.
