        Joseph ran from sin because he knew God had something for him to do. He also knew that sin would greatly hinder his ability to do it.
        Today, I have not taken 1 second to think about what God wants me to do. I will never be famous like Joseph because of that error.
        God created all of us to do something. I can continue in bleakness today, or I can review articles about what to think about (Yes, I struggle to do what my articles say. So I am going to print the ideas that I have not made into habits).
        Second, never give up. When life is blah, having a goal of how to improve, will make life way better.
        Ephesians 2:10 ESV For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”
        Today I was struggling because I was ignoring this verse. Joseph’s faith was always close to 100% that God had a purpose for him. Consider praying:
        “Father, increase my faith, and help me to run from sin.”
        Today I plan to work on habits about what to think about.
        Work on habits, increase faith, increase success.

          Finding our purpose is a top two quitting habit. A person who says, “I’m willing to do what God wants me to do to change the world,” is way more likely to quit. They have multiple reasons to quit, and high motivation to quit.

          Second, quitting “sticks” way more often when you start your purpose. Life has never been better for me. Don’t want to mess up what I now have.

          Third, purpose leads to joy. The worldly things people think lead to joy never do.

          Consider praying: “Father, help me to avoid tempting situations, and help me to care about souls.”

          Fourth, spend a block of time daily praying about purpose.

          Fifth, try new things that you think God would want you to do.

          Finally, develop the positive addiction of thinking about purpose often. It is what we are here for.
