LONE RANGERS

While it is important not to bring negative energies to your camp, you must understand that God has not created a man who can survive alone. We are wired to function effectively in productive relationships. You must learn in your making process to value every meaningful and functional relationship on your path. Build healthy relationships with those valuable individuals you have on your path in progress. Don't be a lone ranger. I have had contact with individuals that possess the traits of a lone ranger. Such individual thinks about themselves alone, they use others and take the glory. They have nothing but can harvest everything from multiple sources and claim the glory. They have an inferiority or superiority complex. Don't be a lone ranger. Whatever you are becoming is traceable to your circle now. Your circle of influence tomorrow is simply the meaningful and fruitful relationships you have now. Win and allow others to win in your circle. Be celebrated and allow others to enjoy standing ovations too. Lone rangers pretend they don't need others because they are capable but in reality, they are not.  They think of themselves as being sufficient by their capacities, whereas they are not. Sometimes, lone rangers may be generals on their own accord, but they will fail when their strength can't go any further. That is when their circle comes in. No, their circle should have been carried along as they progress. Let me tell you the bitter truth. Success is not a success when celebrated alone. You have not made meaningful progress if you are devoid of meaningful and lasting relationships. Stop exploiting people on your path. They can see it. Start appreciating the gift of wonderful men along your path. Celebrate their progress as yours. Be part of their failure too. That is, be there to encourage, and support them in their downtimes. Lone rangers see opportunities and hide them from others. Excuse me, you are only affecting your making process and progress. You will soon find out that the sky is too big for competition. Your design is wired into someone else success. Failure to have effective and meaningful relationships may hinder you from becoming the best of yourself. Jesus started his ministry but needed the helping hands of the disciples. He couldn't do it all alone. Our perfect example was never a lone ranger. Samson had all the graces a man could have. He was anointed so powerfully with a huge dimension of the Holy Spirit. He had the strength and energy that could face a nation's army alone. His undoing was his LONE RANGER syndrome. He was always alone. He never listened to anyone. He didn't raise any soldiers. His brethren whom he ought to raise but did not come to tie and delivered him to the enemy. Don't be a lone ranger. It is delicate and dangerous for what you are becoming.
