Manage Your Life: Set Goals

 

Your life is worth managing

So that you can live it more freely

You will be free!!

 

This life is to learn and to grow. . .

So keep growing by understanding what you have to work on.  I really believe that discipline brings freedom.  So the more disciplined we are in practice, the more we can manage the things we are suppose to manage in our lives.  The thing is, there are somethings that we try to control that the Lord needs to control for you.  These are the heavy things that he tells us not to worry about like food, shelter, clothing . . . He has those things covered.  Then he asks us: Isn't life more than food and clothing?

Yes, your life is more than stuff.  We have to start learning what our responsibilities are so that we can manage the right things in our lives.  Friends, we are supposed to be goal setters.  We are supposed to be builders of legacy.  We are suppose to be managers, kings, and good stewards of what God has given us.  God has given us life!  How are you managing yours?

 

It is time to be FREE!

 

Friends this is going to be a quick post because I am exhausted . . . I mean, I am just spent because have wasted my time this weekend.  I am squandering it away like a lazy squirrel dropping his nuts.  If I keep doing this, I will have nothing to eat for the winter!

 

I know that I am guilty!!

 

I am not beating myself up about it but I am not going to lie to myself about it anymore.  This is awareness. I have awareness that I need to know better in order to do better. And my being better has nothing to do with anyone else but it has everything to do with me being better for myself and my family.  Why?  Because I love my family and I don't want to lose spending time with them.

 

I know that I am a procrastinator and I am learning that if I don’t manage my time wisely, then I lose my time.  This is a universal principle that can be applied to so many things like. . .

 

Time

Money

Relationships

Mind

Health

Boundaries

Etc. . .

 

I am sure that you can think of some things that you mismanaged in your life.  These are the things that you just seem to never have. It is because of mismanagement!

 

I encourage you today to take control of your life and decide what you are going to work on to function better in this decade.  What are you going to do? What goals are you going to set? What visions are you going to have for your life?

 

If you don’t have a vision for your life, then you don’t know how to manage your life.  If you don’t properly manage your life, then you are going to lose it. . .

 

The bible says that without a vision, the people perish.  But happy is he that keep the law . . .

That is just a scripture that is sown in my heart and you can find it in Proverbs . .  you should really look that one up. The law is a set of principles that you should learn.  The promise of learning them is happiness.  Being able to properly manage what you already have is a big one to remember.

 

I want to encourage you to keep growing as I suggest this video to you about setting goals for 2020.  It is my girl Rach . . . giving you tips about how to set goals and plan your year successfully.  Writers, you will love this one. She is at the white board and she teaches a visualization practice from her book: “Girl Stop Apologizing.”  I pray that this video helps you with your vision for this year and the next ten years to come.  I really like Rachel's philosophy of 10 Dreams, 10 Years, and 1 goal technique.
