Not everyone in your circle is meant to be in your story. Some people are in your circle but not in your corner. It's important we learn how to manage our circle.
Discouragement is inevitable but we can still rise and thrive above it. Success will not protect you from discouragement. Expect discouragement and learn to prepare for it.
You are not meant to thrive in every place. Seed must be planted in the right soil and in the right season. When you discover the place for your gifts, you will thrive.
It's imperative that we learn to develop a survival mindset. If your lose your mind, you lose everything. God gave us a sound mind and He expects us to use it.
