You must pray as well as work is one success anthem or principle. The two goes together. They are inseparable from each other.  The two must go together. You pray then work then the pray. The pray or prayer is first part of the total or sum total of what is required to get the crown or the throne. Some people love the prayer but dislike the work. The strong emphasis is laid on the work. You cannot do the prayer and leave the work. The work is also a prayer in another form or the work is the practical form of the prayer you have prayed. The term labor means actions or activities requiring or showing effort. It is a productive work (especially physical work done for wages). Labor also means to work hard. Below are some reasons why some people do not want to labor for the things they prayed for.

1.      1. Loss/lack of faith or trust or weak faith or break faith or faithless or doubt: Faith has to do with having confidence. It is the complete confidence in a person or plan. It is the belief (prompts to actions). It is the fidelity to one’s promise, or allegiance to duty, or to a person; loyalty. It is the unshakable belief in something without the need for proof or evidence. It is the loyalty or allegiance to a cause or a person.

Doubt is the lack of confidence in or have doubts about something. It is indecision, hesitation, hesitancy, irresolution, uncertainty. It is to fear; to be apprehensive. It is the uncertainty of judgement or mind. It is to fill with fear; to affright. It is the state of being unsure of something. Looking at the various meaning of faith and doubt, it is very obvious that faith inspires people and gives strength to the mind. It affects mentality or the mind or mindset positively.

Doubt on the other hand discourages people and weakens the mind. It affects mentality or the mind negatively. One reason people do not want to labor for what they have prayed for is lack or loss of faith and doubt. When you have no faith towards your prayer or towards what you have prayed for, or when you doubt. It will affects your actions negatively. You will no longer be interested in doing certain things.

2.      2. Lack of consecration or dead commitment: This is a solemn commitment of your life or your time to some cherished purpose (to a service or goal).  When you have a cherished purpose, you will do well to pursue it to a logical conclusion. But when there is a lack or a loss of consecration towards what you want to achieve, you will not be able to achieve that thing or things. Having consecration fixed the mind on the goal. You are more focus when there is consecration on your part. To achieve one’s goal, consecration is a must have ingredient. Another reason people do not want to labor for what they have prayed for is the problem of loss of consecration.

3.      3. Poor mentality: Mentality is the way people see, interprets and response to things or situations or circumstances. Mentality can be positive or negative. Mentality affects reality. If your mentality is negative, it will affects the reality negatively. Your actions or activities will be negative incline. You will not want to do the things you should be doing or should do.

If your mentality is positive, your actions or activities will be positive incline. You will love to do what you should do. Our realities are our actions or activities or duties or works. When our mentality is poor, our actions tend to be poor or negative. The third reason people do not like or want to labor for what they have prayed for is the issue of poor mentality.

4.      4. Despair: Despair is the feeling that everything is wrong. And nothing will turn out well.it is to abandon hope; give up hope; lose heart. It is loss of hope; utter hopelessness; complete despondency. Hope enables you to do what you are supposed to do in expectation of positive outcome.

You belief and trust yourself that after finishing the work or the race, you are going to be rewarded. Having hope inspires you to stay on course, and focus your mind more on what you are to do to achieve your desires or purposes. If you have no hope, it simply means you are dead.

Hope helps you not be frustrated in spite the challenges or difficulties you will meet on your path. When you give in to despair, you will become demotivated to do the things you should do. The fourth reason people do not want or like to labor themselves to get what they have prayed for is despair or hopelessness.

5.      5. Fear of pains: Pain is anything that causes trouble; a source of difficulty and unhappiness. It is an emotional distress; a fundamental feeling that people try to avoid. Nobody like or want pain. Pain is the burden or the suffering or toiling or struggle or labor or the fights or wars or battles or obstacles you are going to experience or face in the journey to success.

It is the works or duties or responsibilities to be carryout or done to get what you want. The more people fear pain or pains, the more they stop chasing their dreams. The word labor means to work hard. People do not want to work hard. They want to work less or lesser or not at all.

Because of the fear of pain or pains, most people do not love or want to labor for what they have prayed for. They just love to experience the gains. This is not possible. You must be the miracle that you love to see. Remember, no work, no food.

6.      6. Unfaithfulness or infidelity: To be faithful means any loyal and steadfast following. It is the steadfast in affection or allegiance. When you are faithful to what you have prayed for, you will be consistent in doing the things that you should be doing. There will be constancy of conduct. Your conduct or behavior needed to achieve your goals will not be shaking or wavering or lacking. But when you are not faithful, there will be no steadiness in your actions or in your required conducts.

Most people often give up on their goals owing to infidelity of purpose or conducts. Most people are not faithful to their prayers. And do not know that their prayers are in two forms. The first is in the words and the second is in the actions. So, the actions or the works are the realities or the practical of what you prayed for.

You cannot get what you want without doing the practical aspects of the prayers. A reminder, you must pray as well as work. Unfaithfulness or infidelity is another factor that makes people not to labor for what they have prayed for.

7.      7. They think favor is better than labor: Some people after praying just blindly accept that God will do something about what they have prayed for because for them their prayer has cover everything they need to do. There is no need for any work to be done again. God should just take control of the rest. The truth is that God cannot take control of your actions or works that you are supposed to do. He has His own role different from that of men.

If God will not leave His own role to you, you cannot leave your own role to Him as well. You depend on Him in one area, He depends on you in another area. This is why nature says, God banks on you to do the needful; and the possible.

God is only interest in doing the things that are beyond you. They are called the impossibilities. Favor is not better than labor. They move hand in hand or goes together. In short, labor brings favor. You cannot achieve favor without labor. Favor is better than labor is another reason why people do not want to labor for what they have prayed for.

8.      8. Self-pampering: The inability of some people to postpone their pampering, or gratification in favor of the long-term profit is a major problem of people not wanting to labor or work hard for the things they prayed for. When self-pampering dominates all or most of the actions you will not have time or enough time to work hard or labor for the things you prayed for.

Self- pampering to a large extend is offensive if you have not really work hard to attain that level of pampering. To sustain you self-pampering, it is only possible when work is being done day in and day out. Pampering or gratification is one source of distraction that tend to delay or limit your actions. It gives rise to procrastination. So, any time people do not want to labor for the things they prayed for, know that self-pampering is one of the major cases or causes.

9.      9. Negligence: Negligence is the quality or state of being negligent; lack of due diligence, or care; omission of duty; habitual neglect; heedlessness. It is an act or instance of negligence or carelessness. It is the failure to act with the prudence that a reasonable person would exercise under the same circumstances. It is the trait of neglecting responsibilities and lacking concern.

A critical analyzes of the above meanings of negligence show that negligence deprive you of the much needed strengthen to withstand the force of resistance to duty. When you take pleasure in neglecting your responsibilities, the question is who will do the responsibilities for you? Nobody will do it for you. Even God cannot do it for you. The act of abandoning your responsibilities due to carelessness is one of the critical factors making people not to do what they are supposed to do.

When you are careless about your duties, you end up getting busy doing every other things that are not too necessary in your life. Then the main things are relegated to the bottom of your priority list. The power of negligence forces people to not want to labor for the thing they prayed for.

10.  10. Self-defeating: Self-defeating involves the actions or the activities whose gains or benefits cannot measure up to your dreams or highest purposes. These activities are contrary to your cherished desires. They simply will not help you in any way to achieve your dreams. Although, you may get some short-run gains or profit from those activities. Anything or any activity that capture your mind will takes much of your time whether the activity or thing is of less important to your dreams.

Self-defeating activities do make people happy, and comfortable but they are still self-defeating activities. They do not change simply because they make you happy and comfortable while doing them. They are distractions because they are self-defeating. So, one reason people do not want to labor for the things they prayed for is the problem of self-defeating. Some people thing that if they engage or indulge in doing self-defeating activities they will or can still achieve what they cherish most. This problem is caused by self-delusion.

11.  11. Fear of failure: Failure is the process of doing and doing and doing of the things that you should do and be doing without getting tired of doing those things until your dreams come true.  Everyone is craving for success. No one wants to fail that is why they feared failure. People fear failure because they do not know much about failure. Because of the fear of failure, people have stop chasing their dreams.

They are no longer interested in chasing their dreams. They are tired of chasing their dreams due to the fear of failure. Most people do not know that they only fail because they stop trying. Because most people fear failure, they tend not to labor for what they prayed for.

One thing that causes this fear of failure is the issue of doubt or self-doubt. When you begin to doubt yourself, the fear of failure start manipulating and dominating you and you finally end up not wanting to work hard for the things you prayed for.

12.  12. Loss or lack of concentration: The word concentration means a complete attention or intense mental effort towards a purpose. Here, there are three things to take note of, complete attention, divided attention and no attention. Only one works well and that is complete attention to your works or duties. When you give complete attention to your work or duty, you will work harder to achieve a better outcome.

But where one or you gives divided or no attention to your work, you will be distracted by other things. You will not want to labor for what you have prayed for. When you loss you concentration, you lose your attention or intense mental effort at doing somethings which you should be doing. You will no longer be interested in working hard or harder to do the things that matters much.

13.  13. Loss of determination: Determination is the act of devoting full strength, and concentrated attention to something. It is being strongly motivated to succeed.

The inability to devote one’s full strength and concentrated attention to one’s duties or responsibilities has led to frequent lose or lack of success. When you lose your determination or when your determination is not good or strong enough, you will not want to work hard or labor for the things you prayed for. No determination, no success.

14.  14. Lack of dedication: Dedication is a complete and wholehearted fidelity. It is the act of binding yourself to a course of action. Your fidelity to your duties or works must be complete. It then means that there is the tendency to give less than expected of your fidelity to your works. If your fidelity is not complete you cannot do better than that which you are doing. To succeed one must bind himself or herself to what he or she wants to achieve that is your dreams or cherished desires.

If you cannot bind yourself to what you want to achieve, you cannot achieve it or them. It is only those whose fidelity to their works or duties is complete and who bind themselves to a course of action that can go all the way to overcome the hurdles on the way.

15.  15. Disinclination to work with indisposition to action: You do not like work and you are not ready to take action or take a step or make an attempt at doing something. You prefer sitting on the fence. Your disinclination to work with your indisposition to action show that you have no aim or goal to reach. You are simply comfortable with your comfort area or place. It further show that you have nowhere to go.  

People who have somewhere to go are very much interested to do what they are supposed to do that would take them to where they want to go. Your disinclination to work with your indisposition to action focus your mind elsewhere.

You actually lose your focus because of your dislike for work and refusal to take a step or action or make attempt at doing what you ought to do and be doing to attain your goals or purposes. You are not willing to kill yourself because of your disinclination to work with your indisposition to action.
