Wow, this was something that I learned big time last year and still walking it out for this year. I used to try to run to everything around that was going on. People would be saying different things than what pertained to me and things that didn’t really do anything for my life.
I got involved in some things that even distracted me from what I was really supposed to be doing and the road I was supposed to be walking down.
I finally heard this phrase loud and clear! Just because something is exciting going on around me doesn’t mean that I have to participate. I have to stay focused! Staying focused sharpens my own destiny and makes my life fall together better. It gives me structure in my life and works out my own destiny. Things are not always about other people’s lives and purposes and destinies. Sometimes I get to have one too!π
I would even be places that were serving me well in some areas but not in others. Maybe I was supposed to be there for a time but not forever. Here are 4 things that I do every morning now to get my day started off right and keep me from getting distracted:
1. Pray
2. Read
3. Write
4. Exercise
I realized that if I do them everyday that I don’t have to remember which days I do it. I won’t say, “Oh forgot that, I will do it tomorrow,” because I do it Everyday!
It grounds me… it centers me…it defines me! I’m not trying to be someone else or what they want me to be for them. I’m being Me and what I’m created to be!!
The exercises that I do are rotated between 2 YouTube videos which are 15 minutes each, one is walking a mile and the other is a weight lifting workout! This simplified it for me and keeps me from leaving the house and getting distracted into too many other things!
I’m not saying that is right for you, but it works for me. It’s all about focusing on my identity and not getting lost.
The most amazing thing is that I am not missing anything… things come into my life instead of me going out searching to find them! They are the richest things that come into my life!! Things that I couldn’t have made happen!! Things that are drawn to me!! Things that don’t try to change me!! Try to embrace your own lane!! It’s not a lonely place, it’s a wonderful place!!
If you need help finding your lane and purpose contact me!! I’d be glad to help!!
