Mission Accomplished

We are in the process of trying to get our house ready to place on the market to sell. If I have to do all of the painting it may never be ready! I hate to paint! I would rather take a beating! I did paint a couple of closet doors the other day, and they looked good. But, it took like 67 hours; or it felt like it anyway. The tedious process of painting is just a pain in the backside to me! Maybe I'll finish some day, or maybe someone will buy 'as-is.'

Most of us would probably agree to the fact that we admire a person who knows how to "finish the job." That tells us that this particular person is able to resist the temptation of giving up. I've often stated that it is alright to feel like giving up, if you simply just "don't."

As a matter-of-fact, you will find out you are keeping pretty good company in that group that "feels like" giving up.(Moses,Elijah, shoot even Spider-man and Daniel Boone.) Everybody feels like throwing in the towel every once-in-a-while. People give up on jobs, marriages, children, dreams, hopes,etc. nowadays.

Yet there are those that face the resistance, the trials, the troubles, and the processes, and still press through to the finish line. They accomplish the mission that is before them. They Finish Well!

Hey, I still hate painting, but I intend to see this project through to completion. Or until a buyer comes along that likes to paint. Either way the mission is to sell the place. Do you like to paint?

Mission Accomplished!
