Going throught the motions Pt. 2

Have you ever done something any old way, just to get the job done? If it's gift wrapping a gift for a part your late for, ahh that's not too bad. But if it's life and the important things in life, going through the motions won't cut it. God has given you and I the opportunity to live a grade A life (Abundant) not perfect, but it's still an A. The problem is most people live their lives comfortably with a C Average within their family, mariage, job, and entire life.

I don't want to just show up, I want to be ALL there so here are a couple of questions that I've asked myself to get myself all there.

1) What does my life look like right now?
Life is either invested or spent. Investment means there will be a return. If I'm spending chances are I won't little to any return at all. Are you a spender or an invester of your life?

2) What are the imporant things that I need to keep important today?
It's easy to replace the important things in life with the urgent things of life. What are the important things you might ask? The important things are the things that are going to matter, 2, 5, 20, 100 years from now, those things easily get lost within the urgency of life.Write down a list of the top 10 things that you absolutely cannot ignore for the day. Take care of today and tomorrow will take care of itself.

3) What brings refuels my life and how often do I require a recharge?
I am good for nothing if I do not have rest. I'm not talking just 8 hours sleep. I'm talking about rest in my heart, mind, soul, finding this type of rest is intentional. When the refueling of my mind, heart and soul is absent in my life I'm heading for a breakdown. It's not that I've lost my passion, energy, my creativity, it's that I haven't taken time to recharge the very things that ignite those things in my life.

If you are leader in anyway, work, home, church etc. You are responsible for bringing the best you possible, this means that you are all there. Your passion, energy, and presence is critical and it's vital. Take advantage of these three questions and apply them to your life.
