The Busy Woman's Stress Free Guide To Getting It All Done - Step Three - Creating Consistency With Your Goals

January 15, 2018/ Heather Bunch

How are you goals going so far this year?

How do you actually accomplish them with out “pooping out” mid-way?

I know I’ve had goals I’ve been super excited about for about two weeks. Then I either gave up on them because I didn’t actually believe I could do it, got “too” busy, or put my goal list in a drawer and never thought about them again until next year.

Honestly, I had given up on even making goals in the first place until 2 years ago. I would make goals and NEVER accomplish them. I got tired of always feeling like a failure. So, I just stopped making goals come January.

How do you actually accomplish them with out “pooping out” mid-way?

Goals

Goals are really baby steps to get keep you on the path so you end up where you planned for your life to go.

You get it all done by not getting it all done.

Do you ever feel like you’ve been in the grind a bit too long that you've lost your joy most days?

The Bible actually has something to say about that.

Thanking God for who He is and what He’s done for you is actually prayer.

You could journal this to Him, speak it out loud to Him or even sing to Him. Any way you express it, thankfulness is a key component to developing a great relationship with God.

What is prayer?

Prayer is talking to God. It’s how we communicate with our Heavenly Father. It’s how we connect with the Holy Spirit and access His power in our lives. It’s another way we spend time with Jesus.

Most of us know we need to do spend time in the Word of God, but for the many of us, it’s either a drudgery, it’s boring or it’s a bit confusing.

Spending time with Jesus in His Word should be something that brings you joy not sucks it out of you.

However, our Heavenly Father doesn’t want us feeling that way. He’s actually provided a simple, foolproof way for us to bear fruit.

When you select your thoughts, you shape your future.

How’s the quality of your life?

A victorious life is first won in our thoughts.

What we think on is what we’ll say and do. So, what we think on will determine the quality of our lives.

Do you ever feel so stressed you feel like you’re going to pieces?

Do you feel like this Christian walk should be so much more than what you're experiencing on a daily basis?

But, do we really KNOW it?

How can we be enough?

He’s called us to so much more than what most of us are experiencing.

He wants us to see ourselves as He sees us–fearfully and wonderfully made (from Psalms 139:13-14).

You know fearfully in this passage means: to cause astonishment and awe; be held in awe. And, wonderfully here means: to be distinct, be distinguished and to be wonderful.

Last post we learned that, “joy is an outward sign of inward faith in the promises of God.” (Tommy Newberry– The 4:8 Principle) and that joy is not an emotional phantom floating in and out of our lives. We can choose to be joyful because joy is not based on our circumstances.

Seems like one of the society's favorite things to do is complain.

How do you respond when the pressure is on? What's your response when things aren't going your way?
