This week I've passed another small milestone in my poker charity challenge. I've turned my starting amount of $27.59 into $1006 dollars. Yes, I've passed the $1000 mark, so I'm 20% complete. Although this is great, I really need to pick up the pace in order to hit my end of year deadline for $5K. As it stands, I've got to make a bit under $1K each month to meet this goal. Up to this point I expected that once I got to $1000 that it would be pretty easy sailings. That has proven to not be the case. I've run into a streak of bad luck. I'm sure once it passes I'll get the earnings back up to a mark that I want to be at.
More updates to come. Until then Challenge yourself to challenge the need.
Everyone has challenges in their day to day lives. Most of these, we are equipped to overcome or have support that will get us through. The poor, the hungry, the needy, and the sick are challenged to a level that many of us can't imagine...and they go through it every day. They have needs that they can't meet on their own and many times there is no end in sight. We all have a skill that we can put to use to aid their struggles. Challenge yourself to make a difference. Challenge the need.
