“So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and immovable. Always work enthusiastically for the Lord, for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless.”

I trust those in the United States had a nice three day Fall weekend.  Hard to believe how fast the year is moving, once again. It is said that a hallmark of the best of the best companies is their ability to be consistent with their products, services and offerings.  Consistency doesn’t come by accident.  Someplace in the most consistent of companies is someone who has instilled and upheld being consistent as a value that is sacrosanct to the success of the organization.  Without this level of attention consistency can easily waver and once you’ve lost it, it is extraordinarily hard to get back.  Maintaining consistency is an every moment commitment.  So, I’d say that you either have it, or you don’t.  There is no in between.

I read this quote by Richard G. Scott:  “We become what we want to be by consistently being what we want to become each day”.  That is powerful and also inspirational because if we want to be a better employee, a better boss, a better friend, a better husband/wife, a better daughter/son, a better Christian, we can start today by being want we want to become and then being that once again tomorrow and each and every day.
