Recent: Take any opportunity you can to eliminate a bad perception others might have of you.
i.e. You are in the company of a group of individuals that are drinking and cursing. Instead of sitting there and giving others the perception that you do the same thing because you are in their company you should get away when at all possible.
History:
GIVE IT AWAY TO KEEP IT
Ever been in a position where you had to give something away, whether it be time, finances or even advice, but you either weren't sure you could spare it (time or money) or were not qualified to do it (give advice or mental or spiritual help). Did you ever move forward with it anyway, even though it was a struggle for you and found that God blessed you at the end?
Sometimes you have to give away what you may feel like you can't afford or are unqualified for in order to receive your blessing. Step out on your faith. Push through the process. Get what God has for you by doing for others.
Fake it Until you make it! It's like going to church. Once you start going, sooner or later it will grab hold to you and you will begin to enjoy it.
