I just realised that October is a special month. It is actually very significant.

To the church, it is when we take time to evaluate how our growth over the past year has been. We plan for more growth and gear ourselves for the coming Arise & Build.

In the banking industry (actually, it applies to all Sales depts), people gun for the last quarter..getting figures reset to zero and giving their all to hit those sky-high targets.

And in our very own lives..we reflect. I'm sure I'm not the first to say: "huh, it's October..that's fast..!" and neither will I be the last.

It's the time of the year when we all pause to look back and see what has been done and then, look forward..to anticipate what the rest of the year might bring.

Hmmm..personally, I am excited because October is the (starting) mark of THE final lap of 2009..it's like we're gonna wrap up this whole year & with a loud bang, of course! :)

It is gonna be a most fun time. I believe in the redemptive power of God. Therefore, quantum leaps are indeed possible! Whatever situation in which we felt we have "lost out" in the year perhaps due to insufficient knowledge/skills or at times, negligence or laziness CAN BE REDEEMED. And it starts now - Oct 1st!

I am gonna focus on ending my year well - work on my strengths, improve on my weaknesses..just so very excited & determined to do so.

2009 is a fantastic year!!!!!!!!!!!
