1). Do not procrastinate in starting your book or computer file.
2). The list of poor human responses have become your natural yet fatal reactions to life. By studying these items you will discover that these are evil spirits that make you seem foolish, lazy, disobedient, prideful, intellectually and professionally blind.
The above is an opposite list of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
3). Wisdom is usually associated with age, and this daily exercise will stimulate spiritual and intellectual maturity in just a few days.
4). Please take the time to review all your foolish mistakes even if you think many of your decisions were right. Often letting go of false justification can improve your health and talents. The man who suffered from palsy was spiritually suffering from several grievous sins of his past. (Mark 2:2-5)
5). Some of your review is going to be things you forgot because they were so painful. Review them nonetheless because the more painful, the more powerful to inhibit your professional success. Jesus asked Peter to confess his mistakes three times before he was ready for leadership of the Church. (John 21:15-17) Remember you can forget, but your soul always remembers everything.
6). Someone said, “the night has eyes,” so be vigilant not to allow your enemies to hear your prayers and confessions. The word from Jesus is do these prayers and confessions in your secret closet, (Matt. 6:6) and He will grow and reward you publicly. Remember Jesus said, “…don’t let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.” (Matt. 6:3-4)
7). Finally, this growth in strength, wisdom, understanding and professional success is purposed to defend the Church against the rampant evil in the world today. Be a good soldier and follow His orders.

Jesus has promised to increase our congregation battle strength where one can chase a thousand, and two can chase ten thousand (Deut. 32:30). I am very excited in believing that Jesus will remove all blindness, laziness, pettiness, pride, and foolishness from our countenance, our hearts and our speech.
To wit: I am calling for a permanent fast from anger and proven poor decisions. Included you will take seven days and record the mistakes of pettiness, laziness, anger, disobedience, pride, intellectual blindness, and foolishness that you have made over the past seven to forty years.
Purchase a notebook that you will label, “THE ONE-HUNDRED FOLD WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING BOOK.”
Write in the book your mistakes over the past seven to forty years, (you may elect to keep this book personal, or you may choose to use a code, do not expose your enemies to your sins and open wounds). Of course, you can simply start a file on your phone or IPad. Then every day spend at least seven minutes recounting the tragedy and pain of those acts of blindness, ignorance, anger, disobedience, pettiness, laziness, and pride.
Remember to get wisdom, but in “…all thy getting get understanding.” (Prov. 4:7)
Surely you will notice within a few days an increase in favor, character, blessings, treasure, and professional success.
