Building According to Pattern

-
In everyday living, building is a part of the activities going on. Some are building relationships, businesses, wealth, structures, countries, visions, marriages, friendship, careers, empires, habits, etc. It is a vital part of humanity. Some will last, some will not. Mathew 7:24
There are things to note when building;
1. A Plan
2. A location ( mostly for  concrete structure)
3. Raw Materials
4. Expertise
5. Resources
6. Time
- When you don't have a plan or you deviate from the plan, your building becomes a catastrophe waiting to happen.
- A location that favours a kind of business may not favour another...choose your location wisely taking into cognisance  favourable conditions else you suffer degradation.
-  When you lack the necessary raw materials needed for your kind of building, your building becomes a shaky reed with no solidity.
- When the right expertise required is not in place, you lose your originality and uniqueness.
- When the vital resources are far from your reach, you labour and toil with minimal progress
- Time is a processor, when you allow time process the combination of your ingredients, your building becomes an enviable edifice.
God's word is the baseline and the climax for all buildings, in between are the processes you initiate, whether guided by the voice of wisdom or discretion. You can never build right and enjoy the pleasure of accomplishment without the guidance of God's word.  Proverbs 3:1-7
The builder of all things is God Psalm 127:1b
When you connect with Him, He has the the blueprint for whatever you desire to build.
These fathers of old kept a picture of the pattern before them and strived to adhere strictly.
1.  Abraham built a nation for God
2.  Noah built an Ark of deliverance
3.  Moses built a people willing to take the steps of freedom
4.  Joshua built a people willing to possess their inheritance
5.  Solomon built God a temple
6. Jesus built a victorious and righteous church
WHAT ARE YOU CALLED TO BUILD?
ARE YOU BUILDING ACCORDING TO PATTERN? Hebrews 8:5, Exodus 25:9,40
Be Guided!!!!
Watch out for the attitude of builders... Coming your way soon.

The Iceberg Model: A Systems Thinking Tool

-
Hello my Trendsetting Teens, Today, we want to use this model to explain Systems Thinking as a tool to solve problems and receive desired outcomes. Imagine an iceberg, where: Above the waterline (Visible): Events : The tip of the iceberg, representing individual incidents or symptoms (e.g., a conflict, a problem, or an issue). Below the waterline (Hidden): Patterns : The layer beneath events, revealing recurring themes, cycles, or relationships (e.g., communication breakdowns, power struggles). Structures : The underlying framework, including rules, roles, and processes that shape the system (e.g., organizational design, social norms). Mental Models : The deepest layer, comprising assumptions, beliefs, and values that influence our perceptions and actions (e.g., biases, worldviews). Systems Thinking Connection: Events are symptoms of underlying patterns, structures, and mental models. Addressing only events (the tip) won't solve the problem; we must explore and understand the hidde

DON'T DWELL, POUNCE

 Hi Friend, It is almost getting to the end of a season called 2023 and many are currently taking stock of how the year went. For some, they had many wins, they celebrated, while others, are in a state of gloominess over too many losses they think they recorded. I am sorry to hear that you didn't close the deal, buy the house, get to make the changes and change the trajectory of your life within the time frame you set for yourself but have you ever stop to think that it is not over until it is over? They could be many reasons why it didn't work as planned and you have two options to consider; 1. To either look into the origin of the issue so you can resolve it, learn from it so you can proceed with caution, and instruct others  2. Alternatively, you can choose to reside in a temporary dwelling of self-pity and indulge in sorrow over your losses.  Having a RESPONSE ready is essential for handling life's inevitable challenges. 'But how can I do that?' I can hear you s
