Wholesome Restlessness!

Imagine how Esau was replied by his father Isaac after losing his blessing to Jacob, the cheat he had as a brother. He was told that until he becomes restless enough, that is when he will be able to break the oppression off his neck. Until then, he will keep serving his junior brother. His story would lead me into a conclusion i arrived at recently. And that is to live a life of wholesome restlessness. I've realized that the secret lie in the restlessness to succeed! Not allowing anyone to dissuade you from what you see and believe in.Whenever i talk about issues like this; i hear people say that you are sounding desperate. In point of fact, if you are not determined and desperately out to catch the free flying flies of financial freedom, greatness and success you are not going to catch them.

I will like to differentiate between wholesome restlessness and mere desperation.A desperate person is a frustrated fellow who is trying to act from an hopeless standpoint rather than look out for opportunities and take them. Being on the look out for opportunities is a thing we all need to be trained in. Our eyes often see what our heart is seeking. It takes an extraordinary heart to see and pick what is not obvious. And that is the point. A point where you can sense, smell, sniff opportunities and go for it doggedly until you catch up with it. A restless heart keep searching, keeps inquiring, until s/he is able to see, hold what s/he seeks in a tangible state.
