He isn’t responsible for all actions, we have free will. But it’s what we choose to do with it. We can follow Gods ways or we can follow our own stupid and selfish ways like most do
Might be starting boxing again soon!
I can do whatever I want without anyone stopping me, for example, posting my tales on this forum (whether anyone believes me or not is another, entirely irrelevant matter). Can you say the same? Can anyone else, but dictators in 3rd-world countries? It just so happens that I love every aspect of my life - the drinking, the fighting, the sitting on the forum when it’s actually interesting. The fact that I simply don’t wish to live in a mansion or dictate the fate of a country doesn’t mean I couldn’t.
If you don’t blame him for the ‘bad’ you do, then don’t credit him for the ‘good’ you do either. No matter what anyone says, it’s all on you - every ounce of it.
The bad is on us thsts just obvious brother, God cannot commit evil acts as he is all good and is always working for good. However we cannot
We don’t know until we die.
Well I know what the outcome will be and also what’s waiting for my when I die, that’s where my peace comes from. I just hope you make the right choices before it’s too late for you to turn back
Too late from day one, either way we can’t be certain until we see it for ourselves. Not much use trusting the bible, it was written by humans (whether it was actually fed to them by god doesn’t matter, they would’ve changed it to suit their narrative anyway) and thus it cannot be trusted.
Jim, I don’t really know much about you but any highly successful entrepreneur will tell you to set large goals or one of my favorite acronyms “HAG” (Hairy Audacious Goals). Set yourself a HAG bitch. As for God, the last half of your statement is just your opinion. I’m sorry your relationship with God isn’t great but that’s yours, not mine or anyone else’s. So maybe work on that and your relationship might change.
It’s not for me personally. It’s just something I don’t have a passion for, even if it makes money I would have to grind it out for a bit to see my ROI. I’m not going to focus my free time and energy info something I don’t love. I know two people who got into it, one made it the other didn’t. The one who made it was a firefighter and his wife a nurse, so they had funding. The other one didn’t have as much cash flow. It took two years of full time work outside of his regular job to be making 20k a month. They both quit their jobs after and now just do that full time.
It could be something you could do though, you have the time, low overhead in your personal expenses hopefully. So you could put the time and money into it needed to grow something dope.
I was going to tell you, get a mentor. A lot of my success I can attribute to my mentors in the industry’s I’ve been in. Seek out the most successful guys in your field and learn from them. You should also have some that are successful outside of whatever business you are doing. If you surround yourself with people who are more successful than you, they’ll bring you up and elevate you. “Birds of a feather” as they say.
Yeh it is best to do something you enjoy if possible but a lot of millionaires are saying that’s a lot harder to do now with so many things being taken and people already doing. As for mentors I did speak to a millionaire and get some tips from him, even he said the best way in this day and age is to buy and sell things online, he said that’s what he would be if he was me. Really nice and humble guy from my church. Has a beautiful Mercedes S class to the new one and he also has a beautiful G wagon.
My passion is hugely care mate, so is there any ideas that u could think of for me to go into or try? I’ve thought about doing body wraps for cars and setting that up as a business for nice high end cars.
It’s just so bloody hard to think of what to get started in and what to do when you want to become a millionaire so badly like uuhhh!! The amount of stress it causes me sometimes is ridiculous
It’s my opinion that you have zero faith in your own ability? That’s just fact lol
As a once ‘highly successful’ person myself (meaning that I was completely loaded for most of my late 20s and early 30s) I can personally assure you that god was responsible for absolutely none of it - it was all me. You’re making it out like you think you’re doomed to fail unless god saves your ass, in which case why bother giving advice? You aren’t gonna get rich unless god wills it anyway, so why try, right?
Also I genuinely do not feel like playing kiss-ass with god until I die, frankly I’m way past the PONR and I really don’t feel regret for anything I’ve done (which, I’m told, is the key to repentance and thus heaven). I’m fine with hell, and I’m fairly sure the end result will be the same as heaven anyway.
