Stay Focused - Daily Inspiration

I always try to do what I'm supposed to and follow all the rules, but sometimes the rules seem to change unexpectedly.

Take yesterday for instance. We had been told not to do a certain page setup. Only two weeks ago we had asked a paper we print not to do such a set up. I didn't know the exact reason why we shouldn't do this but knew it was hard for the pressmen and caused a lot of wasted paper.

Suddenly, yesterday doing this setup was okay and I was scolded for not doing what the client wanted.

I'm not a big fan of change but I'm also not a fan of having things change and not being informed. I want to do things right (it's the perfectionist in me) but sometimes even our best effort is thwarted when other's intensions are thrown into the mix.

All I can do is try to stay focused and try to do better next time. (Maybe I need to work on my mind reading skills.)

I'm trying not to get upset and take things personally. I'm trying to focus on why the change happened instead and see things from the side of management. I may never know why things change but I can always do my best and stay focused on a positive outcome.

Is there something in your life you need to stay focused on? Or is there something you need to change your focus on? Take heart. Change happens to everyone, even unexpected change. Give everything your best and turn the rest over to God and Jesus. The problem may not go away but releasing the anguish will give you peace about the situation.

Blessings to everyone today. I pray you have a great and uncomplicated day.

Exodus 15:26 - He said, “If you listen carefully to the Lord your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals you.”
