Why "Toughing It Out" on a Bad Job is a Bad Idea!

Let me take you,repparttar reader of this article, to find out why "toughing" it doesn't work, unless......

1. You recognize that this is a great opportunity to know yourself at your best by keeping a journal; assessing your transferable skills; networking with your peers and others; and having a positive attitude no matter what.

2. You save money for your great getaway! You spend a moderate amount to get some new clothes; new places to visit in your immediate neighborhood, maybe a new restaurant; and books to help you map out your future.

Sermon in the Weight Room

Written by Tony Papajohn


The other day, I gave my first sermon in 3 years.

After 13 years of Sunday lessons, you can hold forth atrepparttar drop of a hat, or a barbell asrepparttar 129896 case may be.

I was in a weight room and my audience wasrepparttar 129897 custodian.

I had seen him for several weeks. We exchanged pleasantries, but nothing else save one request about 3 weeks previously to pray for him.

I said I would, but didn’t tell him my background inrepparttar 129898 “praying business.”

He is about 25, a nice enough fellow, and reasonably happy with his job. Other than that, I don’t know anything about him.

The other day, I was weightlifting and he walked intorepparttar 129899 weight room.

Out ofrepparttar 129900 proverbial blue, he said, “I never understood what “There, but forrepparttar 129901 Grace of God, go I’ means. What does that mean?”

I said, “Well, think about a guy in a wheelchair, a guy who gets killed in a head-on collision, or a guy in prison who ‘fell in withrepparttar 129902 wrong crowd.’ If not forrepparttar 129903 goodness of God, something like that could happen to you or I.
