Last year, there was a leaky faucet outside the hydrant. It was dripping and I kept saying I'll fix that next week. Then, the weather went crazy cold and I still have not fixed it and I guess you know how that turned out.
I thought about how that equates to our personal lives. We keep having that mentality "I'll take care of it later." What decisions are you making today that are going to affect you adversely 30, 60, 90 days from now? I want to encourage you today, take an inventory.

Do you have projects that you need to accomplish and you don't know where to start? Check out my tips that can help you move from where you are to where you want to be.
First one on my list, break down your vision into smaller goals!
When you have a big goal, you might think it is good to work on the entire task list and get it all done quickly. But the best approach is to break your vision down into smaller chunks and execute them in parts. This ensures incremental progress towards getting the job done without any procrastination.

Are you keeping something that you should have told someone? Are you doing something that you should not?
When you follow your conscience, often times your decision is not popular, only not it's not popular or it's really hard to do.
You can kick the can down the road, You can deal with this later but it's always difficult when you deal with it later.
There's always a way for the truth to bubble to the surface. And it's easier to deal with it, you coming fort-right than it is to get caught.
You got to shine the light in the darkness! You got to deal with tough matters. And I want to encourage you to do that today. I promise you will feel a sense of relief!

I am excited with what February can bring!
During my quiet time this morning, I remember my post two years ago about "The Empty Chair" and it made me sad. In my den, there are two recliners, one for me and one for Robin. This is where we hang out and do life together. But one day, one of those recliners will be empty, one of us will be gone. I know that's pretty sad. The truth is, we're going to have horrific regrets or unbelievable memories, one or the other. It doesn't just apply to marriage but to every facet of life, every person we encounter.
One of our mastermind guys is dealing with bitterness. He can't let it go. Believe me I know exactly what it is. A guy did me very wrong that I wanted to shoot him. I hated that guy. I didn't want anything to do with him. But six months ago, I went to him and I hugged him. And I told him 'I love you and I am sorry." I had to let it go because I was the only one being held captive, I was the only one being harmed. I was cheating my family because I was disallowing Robin to live the kind of life because I got bitterness harbored in me.
Guys, some of you, today, you need to hug somebody and tell them you love them and you're sorry. If you can't do that, confess it to somebody else and let it go. It squelches everything in you. We only got one life. We don't get a do over. Get rid of that stuff. You say, they don't deserve it! Well, it's called grace. It's things that people don't deserve but are given to them.
Listen, when you quit demanding justice you will know you have forgiven somebody. When you get bitterness out of your life, you will have a joy that I can't even begin to tell you what could transpire. It will change your life.
Today, let it go! Share this message to your family as some of them needs to hear it.

Here's the litmus test, would you like this kind of activity be done to you? If you do such - over a small amount of money, I wonder what would you do over a thousand dollars? Or tens of thousands of dollars?
