What is the first thing you do when you build a house?

[Nathan Tabor]

What is the first thing you do when you build a house?

Did you think the foundation?

Well, there are “99” things you must do before digging the foundation.

Why do we immediately jump to the foundation as the starting point? It’s the first thought which comes to mind but that doesn’t mean we should always go with our first thought.

We all need to work on avoiding the “first thought” in our lives and in our businesses.

Why? Because when we start at the wrong point, we can’t get the results we desire. We ultimately waste time and money and we create issues we must resolve.

Read these questions and consider your first thought compared to the answer given.

- want more money? What’s your first thought?

What about - Start with a budget and live within your means.

- want better relationships? What’s your first thought?

What about - Spend quality time with your loved ones.

- want better health? What’s your first thought?

What about - Eat better and exercise.

- want a better relationship with God? What’s your first thought?

What about - Study His word and pray.
