Today’s world has become hugely competitive. If you want to get ahead of the pack in 2022 and beyond, you have to be exceptional because being exceptional is key.
The ability to get ahead of the pack is a function of a lot of things.
In this blog post, you’ll learn the steps necessary to help you get ahead in the different aspects of your life.
5 Keys to getting ahead of the pack
But Peter said, “Silver and gold (money) I do not have; but what I do have, that I give to you in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!
Acts 3:6 | KJV
1. Know what you don’t have
Peter said “silver and gold I have not”
This means that he had done a self-analysis, known as SWOT analysis in management. He was able to identify the things he had and the things he didn’t have.
It’s time for you to do the same. Itemize things you need but you do not have and come up with ways to get them.
2. Know what you have
Peter said “Such as I have”, which means even though he knew he needed money and did not have it, he was still very aware of the things he had.
No matter what level you are in life, there are things that you have that can help you get ahead of the pack in life, you just need to identify them and get moving.
3. Work to get what you don’t have
Peter said “Silver and gold I have not” he did not say “Silver and gold I don’t need”. So he knew that he needed it even though he did not have it.
Stop denying the need for what you don’t have and get to work on how to get them. You may need to go back to school, get a certification, seek mentorship etc.
4. Use what you have
Peter did not have money, but he had spiritual power and authority and he used it. Stop allowing what you do not have hinder you from using what you already have. When you focus on using what you have, it’s only a matter of time before you get what you don’t have.
5. Keep at it
Getting ahead of the pack in life is a lifetime journey because others are also moving, you need to realize that you are not the only one that wants to get ahead in life.
You are not a failure until you stop trying and the day you stop growing you will start dying. So keep moving and you will get there.
I am so confident of the faithfulness of God to grant you grace to become a testimony of this year as you commit to playing your part.
