Everybody’s watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Between who you are
And who you could be
I dare you to move
When you’re at the bottom of the barrel, there is a lot of dead weight pushing you down. Do what it takes, ethically and morally, to get to the top. Influence, not impress. Stay focused. Stay inspired. Stay motivated.
Switchfoot, Dare You to Move
Make SMART Goals:
Specific
Measurable
Attainable
Realistic
Time-Specific
Reasons why people fail to achieve their goals:
When you write down your goals, are you really writing goals or are you just writing down your dreams and wishes?
Are your commitments conditional or unconditional? Do you stay committed as long as you are benefited, and it makes you feel good? Or do you stay committed because it is what you have made a commitment to, and you stick through no matter what the circumstances may be?
Compare yourself to who you were yesterday. Success is relative. Just because you finished first doesn’t mean you are deserving or worthy of first place. You just happened to be first compared to that particular group of people. Same goes for when you finish last.
Having attended Mariners church service in Irvine, today was a special day. It was a service for healing and also a service for communion. Observing those that had participated in the sacred act, I saw couples holding each other shedding tears and showing affection for one another. One particular young woman was nearing the end of her pregnancy, and held onto her husband as they said their prayers and delighted themselves in a romantic relationship gifted to them by God. When you think about how relationships are supposed to be as per the Word, it is such a beautiful sight. Though we as people are so unworthy, so broken and in despair, God still continues to bring out the beauty He instilled within His creations revealing His plans, His mercy, and His glory.
Amen.
