Take Your Time

With focus, it can be done.
If time is going to pass anyway, why not just do your your thing and be productive? 

Have you ever said, 'no I can't do that, because it takes too long?'  No matter how you slice it, time is not going to stand still for anybody. Why would we want it to anyway? Just think about where many of us could be now if we continued to save money, continued to eat right, continued to exercise, continued to study, continued to show up on time, or continued to have a positive attitude.

Our goals would have probably happened by now. 

If we didn't convince ourselves that it took too much time, more than likely: We would have quite a bit of money saved by now, be in much better shape today, have a degree or two at this time, have that promotion right now, or perhaps would have already been chosen to lead the team. Yet we stop and we give up, because it gets tedious, we're tired of the grind, or we could be doing something more fun. 

Time is with us, but it can and will be used against us.  

We have to be smarter when it comes to using our time. If not, 5, 10, 20 years pass and as we begin to think more and more we ask ourselves, 'why didn't I just keep going? I would have been done by now. What was I thinking?' If this scenario has played out in your mind, join the crowd. It's been the case with me too. And this is what I know:

It's never too late, we can start right now, because time waits for no one.

I feel free

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. How are you feeling today? What kind of head space have you been in lately? I ask, because I'm just wondering if anybody feels like me -- free like me. Free as an eagle. Free as can be. That's right, out with doing business the old stale way and in with a fresh new operation. It's a shifting happening in the atmosphere of Sharon's life and I'm moving on to the big and awesome things God has for me. What  do you say for yourself? What are you speaking over your life? What it is for you?  For me, I am no longer afraid to go out in the deep end. I am no longer afraid to fly higher, I am no longer concerned about what I have or do not have, and I am no longer concerned about what anybody thinks or says. Who the heck cares anymore? I don't. Because God tells me he doesn't give me a spirit of fear or timidity ( 2 Timothy 1 :7) , but He gives me a spirit of love, confidence, power, self-control, and

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Protecting My Peace - Day 98 - Momentum and Movement, That’s What's Up

Click to listen to current podcast episode. “Never Giving Up” are power-words — strong affirmations that give us momentum and movement. That’s what’s up. We can do so much more in our lives when we have momentum and movement. It’s about standing, literally and not sitting or laying around feeling sorry for ourselves. I used to do that once upon a time and that sorrowful thinking is for the birds. We don’t have to be down. We can get up and get going even if we start small. In fact, I love starting small, because it helps set a firm foundation of habits and routines. Momentum and movement will help us get and maintain a position of strength to do what God says we can do.
