It is important as we move into a wholeness perspective of life that we consider how we approach our business. Too many times we take the approach of a depraved society when it comes to running business. Sorry I had to put it so bluntly but a lot of the stuff out there is just not rooted in the Word of God.
Even Christ himself said that we are in the world but not of the world. So why do we approach our business like those that are in the world.
You may be careful about waste and extravagance, but you need to be willing to invest in quality supplies in order to create a house that is not only beautiful, but can withstand the elements and endure the test of time.
Investing in the necessary tools for your success should be the same for both your personal and professional life. It is important that you take the time to make sure you have thoroughly explored the options and that I have a clear picture of my goal.
I am working on developing productive and proactive conscious habits in my life. Last week I started with drinking a cup of warm lemon and lime water followed by a grain breakfast. I am doing this to connect what I eat to how I live and serve God.
My reason for doing this is because I realize that everything we do must be in direct alignment with God’s Word. God’s word tells us that we are the temple of God and as such that means that we are housing a powerful God. What we do with your bodies directly affects our relationship with God.
As an online business woman, one thing that always seems to be a must is to be productive in business. I say… HOLD ON! Time to put on the brakes! Since when did productivity only apply to business.
If you read my one of my few opening posts here on Life and Business Integration then you know that my revelation for this entire site came from the example of the Proverb Woman. This woman was the epitome of a woman living her life fully integrated.
I have covered the importance of organizing your mind and your body. Now it is time to hit the last area of the whole person – your Spirit.
For the most part the state of your spirit is determined by the state of your mind; and your mind will be driven towards proactive living by the state of your spirit. Your desire to get your body right will come when your mind and spirit connect. It really is about a total being connection.
When you are dwelling in the negative you cannot win. Nothing you do will work out right because that is the way you have trained your mind to think. Negativity clouds godly wisdom and the sound mind he has given you. Your thought process runs your life; and if you are negative then…well…let’s take it to the word. A Simple yet profound verse in Scripture states As a man thinketh in his heart so he is.
I wrote one post on this blog and then I quit posting. I really had no idea how to approach this one. I just knew that it was time for LaTara Ham-Ying dot com. I was just waiting on God because I was truly stumped as to which way to go.
There are already blogs about how to start a business, how to maintain, and all the rest. Really there are many of those and I follow a few like Alice Seba, Kelly McCausey, Ali Brown, and more. There are plenty of blogs that give you opinions about products and things like that like Dr Mommy Chronicles and even my own mom blog, Mom Unplugged.
