Challenge Your Habits, Assumptions and Attitudes

Do have someone who challenged your commonly held assumptions or attitudes?

Today a colleague of mine pointed out to me that my usual tendency is not to direct the result. Most of the time I tend to drift along with others as per their convenience. I did not realize that until he pointed me out. Then that became very clear to me. So from today I begin my ministry from a fresh perspective.

I could defend but I didn’t. That’s for good because I want to grow to be an effective person in God’s Kingdom business.

Another time, my brother told me, “Go ahead and talk. You have been thinking too long.” That is pretty straight forward. That’s another good observation for my development. I need to talk quickly and when needed.

With these two feedbacks on my life, I benefited much. Another two dimensions of my life is improving.

I learned one lesson: Respect those who challenge you. They  have mustered courage to confront you. They meant for good.
