Lesson 6 of Og Mandino's University of Success

My notes from studying lesson 6 include the ideas that growth must be chosen and fear must be overcome. Some questions to answer include:
  • What is your purpose?
  • What are your talents?
  • Is it wrong to be wealthy?
  • What tools do you possess?
  • What challenges need to be confronted?
  • Who is in charge of your life?
  • What are you avoiding by diversions?
  • What will you become?
Remember that you must let the world know you are here, eager to do business, and offer value.

“I would rather try and fail, than to do nothing and succeed.”

Scripture and Snow Shoveling

It was another routine week in the office Monday through Friday. During my Scripture reading this week I finished the book of Leviticus and started the book of Numbers in the Old Testament. Thoughts this week included:
  • People were amazed at what Jesus did and said “he has done everything well” (Mark 7)
  • Wages can bring life if righteous, income can bring punishment if wicked (Proverbs 11:16)
  • Even in the midst of Jesus explaining his betrayal, death sentence, torture, death and resurrection, James and John were focused on self and asking for favor (Mark 10)
  • The blessing of the Lord brings wealth, and He adds no trouble to it (Proverbs 10:22)
  • Jesus was a human being who got hungry while he was here on planet Earth (Mark 11:12)
  • Have faith, ask in prayer, believe, don’t have grudges, forgive, so that you may be forgiven (Mark 11B)
  • Two greatest commands: 1) Love the Lord, 2) love your neighbor (Mark 12:29-31)
  • Those who desire the important seats and places of honor, take advantage of widows and show off with lengthy prayers will be punished (Mark 12)
  • It’s not the amount you give that matters, it’s the proportion and faith with which you give (Mark 12)
  • Riches without understanding are like beasts that perish (Psalm 49:20)
  • Be alert and on guard since you do not know when Christ will return (Mark 13)
Well, I guess it’s time to get back outside to shovel snow. Thank goodness for a couple of neighbors with snow blowers who came to my rescue this morning.
