Keep your eyes on the cross. A secular interpretation could be to pay attention to the cross you bear, or basically, your responsibilities. Whether religious or secular, the idea that people ought tend to their interests isn’t a new one. “Mind your business”; “Put your money where your mouth is”; and “Look before you leap” are all quotes that reflect a similar, if not the same sentiment.

Find your passion. Makes sure it’s something worthwhile, even if only to you. Set yourself on a path toward that goal or worldview and don’t look back. Heaven is an ideal we can all pursue.
