Do you ever feel stuck in life or business and aren’t sure how to get moving again?

Do you feel like you’re stagnant and not growing?

How is your conversation? Dull and boring or vibrant and full of new revelations?

When you were a kid, did you hate when your mom said, “Because I said so”? Or were you the kid that everyone was tired of you overloading them with questions?

Now that you’re an adult, do you find that new office policy ludicrous, so you’re not doing it?

Do you get bogged down in the details because you just need a bit more information to make a decision?

Do you accomplish those monthly reports with no problem while keeping up with your daily exercise routine and even tracking it?

Are you that person that determines to write a book or accomplish a new goal, and you make it happen?

Do people secretly envy your ability to keep a routine?

Let me ask you, does someone “telling” you what to do, make you want to run the other way?

What about when you’re friend insists you should read “such and such” book?

Do you purpose never to pick it up if it killed you?

If your spouse asks you to do something more than once, do you label it as nagging?

Have you ever called yourself lazy or undisciplined because you can’t ever seem to get your goals accomplished?

Do you ever feel like you have time to help everyone else, but when it’s time to invest in yourself, there’s no time left?

How about those New Year’s Resolutions? Did you give up on them years ago, knowing you’ll never do them?

How are you at meeting expectations?

Do you find it easy to meet that deadline for that proposal at work or create ten different kinds of cookies for your kid wanted for their 10th birthday party but can’t manage to exercise consistently?

Or, what about that crazy new office policy–who decided that was a good idea? That makes no sense, so I’m not doing it?

On the other hand, are you the one we all envy because you always get it done? That new client proposal–done! Exercise consistently every day while tracking all your food–check!

Or are you thinking, “I don’t care what they need me to do, I’m doing my own thing!”

Have you ever felt like something was missing in your walk with Christ?

Do you feel like you’ve been given so much and want a way to give back the blessings you’ve received?

Would you like to know a trick to the mind of your pain and gain perspective?

Has anyone hurt you, and it’s still haunting you?

Do you feel a surge of resentment when a particular person or event is mentioned?

Do you find the person you struggle to forgive most is yourself?

What do you think of when you think of grace?

When you see the world, is it a dark place or a beautiful place full of possibilities?

Are you thankful for what you have, or do you find yourself pining for something just out of your reach?

Do you ever feel like you’re not enough?

Have you thought, “if only I could get this Christianity thing right? I always seem to fall short.”

It’s Easter week; are you excited about it or prepped to feel like a miserable sinner?

It’s Easter week. Some call it Holy Week. It’s typically a time for believers to reflect each day leading up to Easter. It’s funny because I’m better at reflecting in reverse than ahead.

Other’s of you didn’t grow up in the church, so maybe Easter was the debate between peeps or Cadbury eggs. Or maybe you had a combination of both.

But what does Easter mean to you?

Has anyone ever asked you, “what’s wrong” and you weren’t sure how they knew you were hurting? You thought it masked it so well.

Have you experienced trauma, big or small, that you need healing from, but others say you’ll never overcome your past?

Would you like to know how you can become the best parent, spouse, friend and leader you can be?

Have you ever felt silenced or like your voice doesn’t matter?

Do you ever get uncomfortable being in your own skin?

Would you like to know what can make you feel and look better?

Are there little things that get under your skin and make you want to pull your hair out?

Could you use a little or a lotta’ more joy in your life right now?

Would you like to know what can make you feel fresh and alive again?

Have you ever encountered a problem because you didn’t stop to think about it before you jumped into something?

Are you struggling to find a solution to a big problem you have?

Would you like to know how to become smarter?

Would you like more support in your life?

Could you use a little more relaxation and a lot less worry?

How about more fun in your life?

Do you have big dreams, or are you like I was and struggle to dream big?

What’s holding you back?

Or maybe you used to dream but gave up when you grew up and your dreams and reality didn’t match?

Do you feel worthy of your divine life?

Have you looked for your worth in yourself and come up short?

Are you trying to find it in others and only find rejection?

Do you always respond to life the way you desire?

What gets your goat?

Is there anyone that pushes your buttons?

Do you want to live your divine life of significance yet feel like you’re not enough?

Have you ever given grace and love to someone else when they made a mistake but beat yourself up when you did the same thing?

How do you talk to yourself? Would you say the same things to a best friend?
