Week 13 · Lesson 1
The Work
Eight questions. What you write is read by your facilitator and nobody else. Not your officer, not your school, not your family, and not in any report. Two of these you do not write down at all.
Week 13 of 23 · Career and Financial Readiness
The last money you got. Where did it go, all of it? Then write how much went to something that came up that same week.
What is the actual pull of fast money?
- A The amount.
- B The speed. A problem at noon is handled by nine.
- C The respect that comes with it.
- D That it is easy.
What is a first job actually for?
- A The money.
- B A record that you show up, somebody who will vouch for you, and proof you can do something you do not feel like doing.
- C Staying busy.
- D Keeping your officer off you.
Three things that would have to be true for you to keep a job ninety days. Transportation, who wakes you up, what you do the first time somebody talks to you sideways. Be specific.
Read the fifth week story again. Which week would get you, and what would you have told people about why you left?
Nobody reads this one. What do you actually believe about whether legal money can ever be enough for the life you want?
Jesus worked a trade for around twenty years with nobody watching. Why does that matter?
- A It shows He needed the money.
- B It shows God was not waiting for the famous part to start using His life, and He is not waiting on yours.
- C It was just how it worked back then.
- D It shows He was not ready yet.
Nobody reads this one. If you were working for God and not for a manager, what would change about how you took being talked to sideways?
Nothing you write here goes to your officer, your school or your family.
