Proverbs 19:20-21
Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future. Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
In todays world it’s not enough to just learn from your mistakes… you gotta be willing and ready to learn from others mistakes.
So here are my top five mistakes from the past that are I think most important to pass on to all of you!
THIS FIRST ONE IS #1 FOR A REASON!
- 1 Focusing on the past.
Jesus died while we were yet sinners. that means he knows we will make mistakes and he will not hold it against us… so why should we. Jesus saw the past in the future…. that should blow your mind! and yet he still died for our sins. So don’t let the past dictate your emotions, your state of mind, your self worth, your goals, your choices for today.
Choose to say Jesus forgive me, teach me, humble me and move on. It really is that simple.
2- A Portion for you:
Monday’s are study time, my sacred scripture, sermons, prayer, worship, journal, devotional time. I write, think, write, think, reflect on good things. I give my spirit time to breathe. Because Sundays are not really a time of feeding my soul and spirit - because I am providing that for others on a Sunday… I have to make sure I have my own Sunday, but on Monday.
Fridays are my date day. So my wife and I have a regular habit of going to the book store. I grab about 20 magazines: Psychology today, wired, Entrepreneur, Muscular digest, The economist, DuPont Registry, Recoil, Fast company, Guitar world, Forbes, Fortune and more… many more. I grab about 15 books. and then a good cup of coffee. This process picking out my stuff is about 1 hour… We are there for about 4-5 hours (I know such an exciting life) we eat some stuff from their bakery, talk, share what we are reading and thinking, I journal, take notes… Its my portion just for my mind, and heart and marriage.
Now you might say… sounds like you take 2 days just for yourself. Absolutely and without apology. I work Saturdays and Sundays unlike most men. And I teach twice a week, preach once a week minimum, and write and teach a podcast 5 times a week. I need maximum input in order to put out quality output. And more importantly to keep my heart, mind soul and spirit full and overflowing!
3 - Who you with?
I must take time to be with a few people every week. Some make me laugh, some make me think, some teach me, some encourage me, some challenge me… but they are all at areas that are above me in some way shape or form. Oh and they are not all christians.
I don’t have time for negative or needy people. do I love them and serve them… of course, but I don’t make time for them. My calendar is for those who will make me a better me. Let me clarify… if you are needy or negative and want some of my time, you will get a little for a short while… but when I pull out my calendar it is to connect with those in greater positions than myself.
A wise man once said “you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”. That Man was Jim Rhon… he was pretty successful, if you consider millions of dollars and millions of lives impacted.
OH AND HOW TRUE!
So the question is not who you are hanging with, but who SHOULD YOU be hanging with.
cut out the riff-raff and pump in the quality. If you can’t find quality people because you live on an island or in a cave - then hang with them in books, videos and seminars.
- 4 Time to align
You must weekly take time to align your life, past, future, thought life, family, marriage and health with scripture. What does scripture say about each of these and are you living accordingly… are you letting satan and a sinful world push you around and conform you to its mold or are all these areas being transformed by your faith in the word of god.
It is so easy to watch someone on youtube or hear a speaker and believe that they have it all figured out… Not if it doesn’t ring true with scripture. Look there are business moguls that I watch regularly, they are wicked smart and I learn a lot, but when it comes down to the reality of my life… it better line up with scripture or it is a waste of time.
If you are a duck quit acting like an eagle, if you are an eagle quit trying to be a lion and if you are a lion start acting like one. You find meaning and purpose according to what scripture says you are, to what God calls you to do and with his power in you to do it.
I am sooo happy in who I am. I pastor a small church, I am building a business and a ministry that may or may not become anything… but I know I am in the center of Gods will and that makes my life FANTASTIC.
- 5 GIGO - GARBAGE IN GARBAGE OUT
We live in a toxic world. Let me define toxic for you in todays world. It doesn’t start out as poison… you ever see a bay that is filled with garbage? Plastic bottles, wrappers, pop cans, garbage bags, old netting, a tennis shoe, deflated volleyball etc… none of those things are bad or dangerous in and of themselves… but when they become excess and so much so that they are thrown around and thrown out carelessly they end up being toxic. So is social media.
Is the guy pushing his “how to make a 6 figure income toxic… not really except you put that with 7 add’s of what you need, 4 adds of what you are not, 8 adds of what you should get to feel happy and thin… along with all the pictures and videos of what you are not and what your life does not match up to… it becomes toxic by excess.
You must be willing to turn it all off for a few hours a day.
Vitamins are good, but too many at once and they become toxic. Social media is fine in very small doses. I can really only stay on one site for more than a few minutes and that is pinterest. I get to choose what I want on my pinterest page… and its motivational quotes, lifting, cars, guns knives, boats and nutrition, bible verses - thats about it.
You will be blown away at how much clearer you will think, act and produce simply by cutting out 99% of your social media - including email.
