K.I.S.S.
Today I had the unfortunate task of taking my cell phone in for repair. I had heard all the horror stories of how long I would have to wait. Unfortunately, all the stories were true. It was two hours I lost out of my day just to find out the phone could not be repaired. The really sad part of the story is I was the first one in the store. Having plenty of time to think and observe, (which helps keep your from focusing on the time) I came to a conclusion of what the I believe was at source of the long wait. The company had completely over complicated the process. In an effort to simplify the process on their end, they had made it a dreadful experience for the customer. But then how often do we do the exact same thing in our own lives? God, in a way that only He could do, has made our manuel for life so simple that anyone can follow it. We are the ones that bring complications to the table. The apostle Paul said, "Everything is permissible but not everything is beneficial." There are alot of great opportunities that come along in life, but that doesn't mean we are to overfill our lives with everything that comes our way. If we could just learn to be consistent in the simple things then we could accomplish much more in life. When we over complicate the process, we end up doing alot more talking than succeeding. The most successful people in life have learned how to simply do one thing but do it consistently and give it everything they have.
