In the fast-paced and distracting world we live in, it’s easy to get caught up in the sensational headlines and controversies that dominate the news. However, it is important to remember that our opinions and efforts are better spent on things we can control. You need to learn to focus some more on minding your own business. You should take the time to reflect and analyze your own progress. Failing to do so will leave you stuck in a state of inaction. You would continue to offer unsolicited advice to others. While you continue to avoid doing the work required by your destiny.
Oftentimes, commenting on public affairs such as celebrity scandals or government policies is done in ignorance. This is because you lack the perspective and context needed to make an informed judgment. It is important to consider what motivates you to offer your analysis and opinions, especially when they are not requested or paid for. Analyzing the latest performance of the national sports team. Or the latest scandal involving corrupt politicians, churches, or pastors may offer some form of entertainment. But it holds little significance in the grand scheme of your own life. It is a distraction. Concentrate your energy on your areas of expertise. Focus on your mission.
Take care of your own business and act as your own analyst. Improve your ability to set and achieve attainable goals. You should be acting on what is truly important in your life. Jesus advised that you “first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.” You underestimate the amount of focus required to complete your mission. You’re wasting your time debating clickbait and sensational news headlines. This is not profitable. Avoid the modern-day distractions. Get clear on your mission and commit to taking action on a daily basis.
