Hi, welcome back! I hope you enjoy this post. Don't forget to comment, thanks!

Do you find yourself putting 50% effort into what you do? Sometimes it’s easy to just invest just enough to get the job done.

A wise man once said, “Every job is a self portrait of the person who does it. Autograph your work with excellence.” I am in total agreement with this statement because people are always looking at your work and judging you by it.

Not only that, God looks at the heart of the person who does a work for Him. He’s looking at our motivation for doing what He calls us to do.

I’ll never forget when I was younger, having to rake up the leaves. Raking up the leaves in our yard was a chore because we had a lot of tress in our yard and it was big. It was easy to get tired and rake up 75% and leave the rest. However, the only problem with that was it was not only a bad impression on me but a bad reflection on the household.

Friend, remember that in everything that you do, autograph your work in excellence. We say so much about ourselves before we open our mouths. The work that we do is many times one of the best first impressions that we make.

Take pride in your work whether it be raking leaves, writing a paper for school or doing normal daily tasks on your job. Sometimes, the things that we do everyday over and over again has a tendency to get old. And it’s easy to get complacent and lackadaisical because we loose interest and vigor in our daily tasks.

Remember, to be consistent and always put forth a 100% effort in everything you do. No matter how much or how often you’re doing a task, refrain from growing tired. I used to hear the saying, “You either do it 100% or don’t do it at all.” Set an example of a great work ethic. People are watching but most importantly, God is watching.

Friend, don’t just invest enough to get the job done, go above and beyond the call of duty. Take initiative today and autograph your work in excellence!
