Build a Cathedral

Purpose comes by a new mindset.

“For as one thinks within in the mind, so is he.” - Proverbs 23:7

Zig Ziglar (1926-2012) was a premier motivator, sales trainer, and inspiring individual.

Zig loved to tell the story of an individual who passed three workers digging a ditch.

He asked each of them what they were doing.

1. “I’m digging a ditch,” the first one said, believing the answer obvious.

2. “I’m making $17 an hour,” said the second, reflecting a need to survive, not thrive.

3. “I’m building a cathedral,” said the third, a man with a big-picture vision.

   The meaning we ascribe to our efforts, situations, and lives dictates the extent to which we find satisfaction and happiness, even in the simplest or most menial tasks.
