Let's Fight The GOOD FIGHT!

Let's Fight The GOOD FIGHT!

Anyone WHO has NOT been into any fight in life yet?  If I see a show of hands, I'll conclude that very likely, you were born just yesterday.  WHY?  Simple.  Life is NOT life without any Let's Fight The GOOD FIGHT!  I admit that this expression is often used in Christian circles and even in Western culture in general.  Out of curiosity, I dug deep and to my amazement, I found out that this redundant wording was often used way back the 5th Century ADπŸ“—πŸ“™πŸ“˜
WHILE typically this expression is more of a patriotic warfare idiom for good character revealed by persevering through NOT merely one battle BUT military campaigns extending over a period of time.  Swinging back to our daily life, it may NOT be often BUT the realities in life will confirm that from time to time, albeit rarely, we will get involved in various forms of a conflict leading to a FIGHT.  WHETHER we end up in a war of words is another story BUT let's call a spade a spade.  You can be the most timid OR civil BUT sometimes, you get [innocently] dragged into a FIGHTπŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦
This all boils down to us choosing, picking our battles.  WHY do we need to choose our battles wisely?  After all, life ISN'T measured by HOW many times you stood up to fight.  So, it's NOT winning fights and battles that will make us happy BUT it's HOW many times you turned away from it, and choose to look into a better direction.  Life is too short to spend it on warring.  Fight only the most, most, most important ones and let the rest go
Frankly, NOT every disagreement is worth your time and energy.  SO HOW?  Redirect your time, attention and energy on those stuff most beneficial and most relevant to you.  Being choiceful of even the problems, arguments and confrontations you get involved in, and saving your energy for the things that matter, is WHAT matters most.  WHAT this means, rather than confronting every single disagreement, it is imperative that you fight ONLY the most important ones and let the go of the rest.  WHYBECAUSE NOT every conflict is worth addressing.  Many disagreements are trivial and have NO effect in the long run.  WHEN you ask yourself if WHAT's bothering you now matters one year from now, chances are it WON'T and it's better to focus on the things that matterπŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯
Our takeaway:  The very essence of picking our battles before we FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT is that the very point of choosing our battles is to be protective of HOW you spend your time, which by itself is a very limited resource.  WHAT are the things that matter to you?  WHAT are your most important GOALS?  WHO are the most important people to you?  You may appear to win in every conflict BUT eventually you'll get exhausted✅✅✅
