It’s the heat of Summer, the mid-way point of the year, the halftime of your Direct Sales business goals – and you may be growing a bit weary. It is normal; you have worked hard, you have had successes and probably, you have had some setbacks. You may be right on track with where you want to be with your goals, or you may be far behind. Either way, this point of the year, it is normal to be a little weary.
That is one reason why it is so important that you attend your National Conference, or even to be certain you meet together with your local teammates to encourage each other and renew each other’s strength. It is important at this time of year, that you purposely plan opportunities, whether by tele-meeting or face-to-face, to meet with those you can encourage and who can encourage you. It is also important that you take the energy from your time together with your teammates or at National Conference, and set your plans for a productive second half of 2013. No matter your current position in your Direct Sales business or your “other” career, it is encouraging and inspiring to renew your energy with the help of others, and then set your goals to finish 2013 strong!
You may also have an area in your personal life that you have been working on and you are beginning to get a bit tired, a bit weary. Maybe it is a personal goal you have been working on or maybe it is a personal relationship you have been trying to impact. You may be wondering if your efforts make a difference. Well, be assured, if God has provided you the wisdom and opportunity to use your gifts and talents for His glory, whether in your business, your career, your personal life or in a personal relationship, if God has provided it, He will give you the energy, wisdom, time and resources to persist in it. God has also provided your church family to encourage you – so be at church with your friends weekly or at Bible Study together with others. And more importantly, remember that as a Christian, you never work alone in this field that God has given you. God has provided the Holy Spirit within you to give you wisdom, guidance and power to do what you could never do on your own.
It is halftime. So get some refreshment, prepare your plans for the second half, and renew your strength. It will be so worth it!
“Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
-Galatians 6:9
