In life, it’s not whether you get knocked down because that’s bound to happen. The important part is whether you get up! You can do anything! It’s your brain you have to convince. Don’t let a failure get you down. Michael Jordan missed more than 9000 shots in his career and lost almost 300 games. 26 times he was trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. He said this: “I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.” So pick yourself up and try again.

  If you don’t STEP forward, you’ll always be in the same place. If you don’t ASK, the answer will always be no. If you don’t GO after what you want, you’ll never have it. So basically it’s time to MOVE!! Got that?

  Don’t wait until you’ve reached your goal to be proud of yourself. Be proud of every step you take toward reaching that goal. Goals can be something small or large. But every time you make a decision to step in that direction, be proud of YOU!

  I want you to think of a special person who has impacted your life and then read the following: “When you remember me, it means you have carried something of who I am with you, that I have left some mark of who I am on who you are. It means that you can summon me back to your mind even though countless years and miles may stand between us. It means that if and when we meet again, you will know me. It means that even after I die, you can still see my face and hear my voice and speak to me in your heart”.

  No matter how slow you go, you are still lapping everybody on the couch. Every time you get up to exercise, to read your Bible, to say a prayer or to help someone, you are lapping everyone who remains on their behind. Be proud of yourself.

We must stop trying to protect, to rescue, to judge, to manage the lives of those around us. How people live their lives is not our business. It’s God’s business. So leave it to God! He is the great protector, rescuer, judge and He manages the lives of those around us. And unless He speaks a direct word to you about what you should do, step back from being a fixer. So let’s take off our cape and let God be God!
