Act Like an Ant

November 28th, 2005

One of my favorite books is by my old teacher Dr. Henry Cloud, author of the Boundaries series.

Dr. Cloud’s “Principle 5: Act Like an Ant” basically boils down to this: successful people are able to keep the big picture in the back of their mind while focusing on the next step that is before them. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by the scope of what you’re trying to accomplish, like an ant undertaking the building of an anthill. But go to work on just what is next, just what you can carry, and it comes together piece by piece.

I love the passage in Luke 4:43 where Jesus says “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent.” What’s fascinating to me is that here is Jesus, the Son of God, the guy who changed the world, and he’s focusing on just “the other towns”. Taking things one step at a time – acting like an ant. It’s a great lesson when things start getting overwhelming. There really isn’t anything you can do that is much more effective than to just concentrate on the next important task.

    This is so true. I was feeling overwhelmed just now and I read this and I now feel things are put in proper perspective. thanks!

    One of my favorite books too! I love this principle even though I'm not very good at it. I think I need to put it on my fridge and look at it every day so that it reminds me to act like an ant! :-)
