Fall Tune Up

Today I present a few tips to tune up your goals this Fall. Enjoy! Show Notes: Unapologetically accept your priority - If you made a commitment, by all means, be faithful to finish. It is important to practice integrity. We can always learn from being stretched thin and make better choices. Taking too many detours does not lead us to our final destination. Identify your priority and press on. Practice long-term thinking - The opposite mindset focuses on doing what feels good right now. Long-term thinking considers the lasting consequences of temporary feelings and desires. Ask, "how will this affect me long term?" Do not use religion as an excuse to be lazy. - God is known for requiring His servants to do hard things. Remember Daniel? Any of the major or minor prophets? The disciples? They all had demanding and difficult assignments. I know, we're not in the first century. I know there are exceptions to this. For example, if you are sick, you shouldn't be fasting. If you have a fever, we need you to stay home until you are well, then you do not forsake the assembly of believers. Now, if there is nothing wrong with you, and if you go to the store and sporting events on a regular basis, you need to own up to your own choices and decide if you will obey or disobey God.  Put on your learning hat this fall - I was making a lot of assumptions about a group. Instead of being furious, I got curious. It is difficult to learn when you are angry. When I put my feelings aside, I was able to learn and grow. Want more? Visit my blog!
