Today is a new season for me. Yes it is Christmas and the new year is only 11 days away, but sometimes the commitment for something needs to made immediately. It cannot wait; there is a sense of urgency that demands attention. The urgency that rises up from your gut and says the time is now, it cannot wait any longer. That is where I am today. A new week, a new day, and new season. This new season has been on the horizon for sometime now. Everything I pick up to read is quietly speaking of discipline and commitment. Not just in one area, but the kind of discipline that begins to define a persons life, the kind of discipline that sets the apart the extraordinary from the average. This kind of discipline is not glamorous or heroic, but is born out of hard work done everyday.
In May of this year Kendall and I began a home based business with Beachbody, makers of P90x, Insanity, and Shakeology. We got busy working out, making better eating choices and the results were amazing. I must confess I have not made that same commitment with our business. We dream of being in a place of financial freedom, but I have not made the time nor been nearly as committed as I want to be. Even my working out/eating habits have slipped as of late. That is not to mention the discipline I want to see spiritually.
Today, I am drawing a line in the sand and I am stepping over it. I am leaving the past in the past. I have learned some amazingly valuable lessons, but today is a new day. Today is a new season. My someday is today. I am making some commitments. I am committing to a new 90 days of healthy eating and exercise (a P90x/Insanity Hybrid) I am committing to reading through my bible in 90 days. I am committing to following the game plan for success that our company says will build the foundation for a 6 figure business over the next 90 days. I am committed! You see this is discipline. Planning out what we are going to do and then allowing our fleshly, instantaneous attitudes to rule our moments is not a disciplined life. NO! Disciplined people make a plan of action and keep at it until they see results. THEN, they do it more! Even if the face of rejection, disappointment, and no immediate results. The results will come. It is the age old idea of sowing and reaping.
I am excited! I can't wait to see the change, not just outwardly, but inwardly. Hard? To be sure! But NOTHING worth going after is EVER easy! It was once said that the journey of 1000 miles began with one small step. Here is my one small step...
