Personal Growth, Prioritizing your life

When Goals Steal your Peace…

when-goals-steal-your-peace

Goals are supposed to be a tool to help us align our actions with our priorities and make us make progress towards what matters to us. Sounds good right?

Well, then why do we so often fail at our goals?

Or better yet, when we succeed at them, why do they leave us dissatisfied?

If you are a type A Christian who wants to “do everything right” and yet goal setting seems to be causing more harm than good, then you are my people.

Is all this worth the effort??

Overcoming the Fear of Being Vulnerable with God – Step Out of the Boat

When I was little I had a really bad bike accident just as I was starting to get confident on two wheels. Ever since then I have had a love hate relationship with bikes.  I love the feel of the wind on my face and the call of the open road… but, I can’t handle cars, pedestrians, intersections, gravel, bumps, turns, snow, downhill grades or anything else that gives me even the slightest concern for my life.

I am a cautious being by nature, so speed and adrenaline are not my friends.

And yet, I realize that it is my fear that makes me unstable. It is my lack of confidence that makes me falter.

So I must question, am I sabotaging myself?
