A decision is like an earth tremor or an earthquake; its effect often outlasts the moment with far-reaching consequences. A good decision taken at a wrong time may have more devastating effect than an indecision might produce. Every decision is arrived at by information or by revelation. Information is obtained through perception and study; revelation is obtained by searching the heart of God - it pertains to one's destiny.
Where destiny is involved, you can't afford to make silly decisions. Your motives must be pure; your choices must be defined. The sting of indecision hurts the weak, haunts and hunts the procrastinator. Both are never innocent in their undertakings. Many wonder at the outcome of their decisions but fail to check two major ingredients: their motive and their resilience.
To desire change without discipline and skillful work is to desire harvest without sowing seeds or weeding your farm. No shortcuts to true greatness. The hand of the diligent bears rule. Diligence becomes a curse if your integrity is compromised. What is your integrity quotient? Integrity is not an opinion of yourself you try to sell to people; it the memory they retain of you long after you encountered them.
