1. Know that you are anointed for the job or position you now hold. God uses ordinary circumstances as a training ground to perfect our character.

2. Don’t expect to be appreciated. God values humility and servanthood not pride and entitlement.

3. Embrace opportunities for change. May we reach the stage of maturity when we are no longer surprised by change.

4. Do the job well while remembering the vision. The secret to performing your duties well where you are, is to maintain a vision of where you‘re headed.

5. Don’t let the environment get inside you. To counter bad attitudes, behavior and gossip, maintain a regular diet of prayer and Bible study.

6. Increase your capacity to work with difficult personalities. Too often we only try to fit in and connect with others similar to us.

7. Where you are is not where you are going. Be peaceful while progressive….

8. Achieve optimal results with minimal confusion. We spend too much time trying to compensate for our weakness rather than capitalizing on our strengths.

9. Do not pledge allegiance to cliques and groups. The enemy tempts us with the security of group and the approval of others.

10. Keep your song near you. Spend time in God’s presence. Study His Word, offer up prayer and look deep inside yourself to call up your song – praise and worship him
