You Are On The Clock
Ephesians 5:15-17 (NLT) – So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.
2020 has been quite the year, and for most of us, we’re glad it’s nearing an end. It’s time to act, and it’s time to make a plan; it’s time to set some goals. January 2nd is coming up fast, and there will be a lot of time between now and then that you CAN use to set some goals and projects for 2021. Here a few steps you can take now that you can leverage for a new year.
Step 1: DEFINE YOUR FUTURE
What does next year look like (hopefully nothing like 2020); where do you want to be next year at this time. What are some financial goals, relational goals, spiritual goals, and physical health goals you want to accomplish? Take a few moments and dream about what your life can look like next year at this time! Be sure to write it down in a journal.
In December of 2017, I dreamed about starting my own business and being a blessing to Christ Hope International. I took notes, prayed, and made a few lists of how the next year would look. Three years later, my business is growing, my clients are sending me referrals, and I share office space with CHRIST HOPE!
Step 2: RECRUIT A TEAM
I have learned that I have to have a few friends that are FOR ME, to help me get to where I want to go and to help me stay clear of pitfalls along the way. You, too, will need to recruit a few friends to share your dreams with and help you succeed.
Proverbs 12:15 (NLT) – Fools think their own way is right, but the wise listen to others.
If this step is a struggle for you, give me a call or email to set up a consultation to clarify your goals.
Step 3: MAKE A PLAN
You will need to make two plans. Your first plan will help you navigate the Holiday season, and the second plan will help you have a successful 2021. For your second plan, you need to be clear, realistic, measurable (e.g. I want to lose 25 lbs in 2021), and timely. I love helping people set goals and plans. There is no reason you should do the same thing year-after-year and expect different results. Take control of your life and be responsible!
Proverbs 12:14 (NLT) – Wise words bring many benefits, and hard work brings rewards.
