“Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.”
We have learned that God’s call to service doesn’t always mean full-time work in missions or ministry; it just means full-time service to God wherever we are. Did I hear God’s call? Did I feel it? Is it in a still, small voice? Is it a dramatic event? Or is it just a feeling? I believe it can be all of the above.
Charlene Belitz and Meg Lundstrom, authors of the excellent book, “The Power of Flow” describe affirmations like this, ” Affirmations are positive statements you make to yourself, which consciously program the unconscious part of your mind and set the stage for self-fulfilling prophecy. They can be extremely powerful in producing results .” You can see the full article by Michael Mural at: http://www.cartoonmotivators.com/pages/FootyAffirmations.html
Here’s a cartoon I drew for my book Soccer Motivators – at the moment it’s still gathering dust on my hard drive – but it’s a goal of mine to complete it in the next three months…
A client asked if I could come up with a teamwork cartoon to show working together could up their profits… here’s my initial sketch…
Together we can achieve RESULTS!
I’ve also dug out a few teamwork quotes that might inspire you…
A group becomes a team when each member is sure enough of himself and his contribution to praise the skills of the others. ~ Norman Shidle
One piece of log creates a small fire, adequate to warm you up, add just a few more pieces to blast an immense bonfire, large enough to warm up your entire circle of friends; needless to say that individuality counts but team work dynamites. ~Jin Kwon
Individuals score points, but teams win games.
– Zig Ziglar
When commissioning cartoons… Pick TWO of the three options!
Good+Fast = Expensive Choose this and I’ll postpone every other project on my drawing board, my round of golf or give up my footy match ticket and work day and night to get your job done. It WILL NOT BE CHEAP though!
Good+Cheap = Slow Choose good and cheap and I’ll still do a great job at a discounted price. But you’ll have to be patient while I fit you in after my higher paying clients, updating my web site, going down the gym, my footy matches, rounds of golf and liquid lunches!
Fast+Cheap = Inferior Choose this option at your peril. It will still be delivered on time but it will be inferior, as many corners as possible will be cut. You know the saying ‘You get what you pay for!’ The least favorable option in my opinion!
