The world is full of those who like to ride on the coattails of others. You can see them as those who want things accomplished, but rely on other people to do the work. Once it is accomplished, then they can move ahead. They aren't willing to make the bold move themselves, for whatever the reason. They choose to accept things as they are since they are not doing anything about it to help the cause. This brings us to this week's quote...
There are two primary choices in life;Which group identifies you, in most situations? Is your agent number 47473, 26675246, or 2667522368? (being gripe, complain, or complacent). Being an agent takes work. Even being one of these agents takes a sense of work. The effort that is put in being these agents could be put into being agent number 243643 (change, if you haven't figured it out yet). Being this agent will allow things to get accomplished for the betterment of a cause. However, this type of agent doesn't mean that you step on other's to accomplish your purpose.
to accept conditions as they exist,
or accept the responsibility for changing them.
~ Denis Waitley
The world already has enough 47473, 26675246, or 2667522368 agents. It needs more agents that are willing to put their efforts into making the world you live around a better place - be it your community, church, workplace, home, school, etc.
Always at the Academy...

I really like this week's quote! And, I appreciate being married to a man who doesn't sit around, complaining, being unproductive for God. You are an awesome "change" agent. You do much to change this world for God's Glory and I admire that about you!
