Be specific. How often do you hear someone talk about a goal or a dream, but there really is no substance to it. It is vague at best. How many times have we done that? We talk about wanting to lose weight, to make more money, to get promoted, to be healthier, to have better relationships, to get closer to God. All that talk, but with no real goal in mind. It is easy to say it, but why is it some achieve it and others don't? Habits, determination, values, focus, that's why! You must be specific, and then you must put the plan in a real motion towards an end goal! If you are saying you want to do one thing, but your actions are reflective of another the gap between achieving that goal and where you are is only going to grow. You can't be something you are not willing to be. It seems simple, but it is not. There are so many distractions, so much negativity, so many things that provide a mask of instant gratification around us it is easy to forget about what matters and go after the things that don't. I've been there. I have chosen one thing over the other thinking it won't matter until I created a habit and a false need. We are creatures of habit, so if you aren't creating those habits that align with where you want to go then you are not going to get there. So, if you are trying to figure out why things are not coming to fruition, start with looking at yourself and determine if you really want what you are saying you do. Ensure you set yourself benchmarks, checks and balances, find accountability partners (that you know will be honest with you about where you are), and then be specific. Write it down, wake up and give yourself a talking to, say your prayers of thanks for the opportunity at the start of the day and at the end, and be what you set out to be. Honestly, clearly, and specifically be the you that you are capable of being.
Believe in the Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is that you have the strength, the path, and the courage to set your dreams in motion and pursue them with the faith you can and will achieve them.
Have a blessed day!
