Learn to be Specific....

Be specific Chelsea...Be very specific.



I learned a valuable lesson yesterday. It was pointed out to me that possibly my time spent in prayer (dont look so shocked, i dont really think i am the most powerful thing in the universe) could be better spent if I had a more pointed direction to the things I was asking and searching for. Maybe just asking for strength and help wasnt the way to go. So i gave it a shot....

I spoke at length about the things I was struggling with. I asked for guidance and DRIVE in numerous situations that are plaguing me. (top secret shit sorry I cant share) I spoke clearly and really from my heart. I finished up with my usual prayer ending which goes like this..."hey man, thanks for listenin to me gab, I hope you have a really great day, love chelsea" *very proffesional ending* I then said a quick mantra in conclusion 'drive, drive, drive, drive'....

guess how my day turned out? i drove all fuggin day. 97 erands landed on my plate and I literally drove from dawn to dusk. I laughed outloud by noon realizing although it was awesome to feel like I was being listened to, I really need to be more specific. I asked for drive and dammit drive is what I was given. Oh you big jokester....needless to say I was far more clear this morning...'free money, free money, free money' Ok, that last part isnt true, but it sure was tempting.
