Thoughts [3.01.09]

1. God is the ultimate planner. So many times, I make my own plans and in my limited scope, I can't see that there's a better path/plan available. That's why it's so imperative to have faith in God, to hold everything loosely, and to trust that God knows what He's doing.

2. A lot of the times, I think I talk just because I want other people to know what I'm thinking, or because I think that they can benefit from what I'm thinking.

So, I'm gonna talk less. I always revered those people of few words who spoke sparsely but loaded with wisdom. I don't think I could do that, but I can decrease the sheer volume of my words by cutting out the self glorifying, needless talk that doesn't benefit anyone.

3. Related to talking less, I also want to learn how to be a better listener. So I'm going to try to listen more and be more interested in what people are saying and not be annoyed by them.

4. I wanna invest more in people. I'm bad at chipping away past the superficial, so it will be a worthy task of epic proportions.
