Series: Opting Out

What Road Are You On …. To Pas­ture? …Or is it to Slaugh­ter?

Imag­ine for a moment you could zoom out from your lim­it­ed first per­son view and get an omnipresent point of view, like one you would in Google Maps. From this per­spec­tive you can see where you are now and the des­ti­na­tion. If you were able to see sev­er­al miles ahead what would be the des­ti­na­tion?

Would it lead to pas­ture or to slaugh­ter? Often times we don’t always ful­ly real­ize if the path we are on will lead us to where we are want­i­ng to go. Ulti­mate­ly no one wants to go to the slaugh­ter, but nei­ther do the sheep. How can we know if we are on the right path or if we are on the”… way which seemeth right unto a man…” (Proverbs 14:12)

Do you hide or keep your suc­cess and good news to your­self? Do you ful­ly cel­e­brate and bask in the joy of your hard work?

If you find that you shine a lit­tle less bright to make sure oth­ers don’t feel bad in the event of your suc­cess it’s time to come out and shine friend. Go up to that attic and col­lect those suc­cess box­es cov­ered in cob­webs and dust and let it all out. I total­ly give you per­mis­sion to have a blow out retroac­tive suc­cess par­ty. Make sure to send me an invite. ❤

Friend or Fren­e­my? This pod­cast puts that lit­tle voice in your head on tri­al.

What can we do???

The world seems to be get­ting dark­er and more neg­a­tive. With tech there are even more avenues for neg­a­tiv­i­ty to spread it’s con­ta­gious poi­son. It is so much eas­i­er for the neg­a­tive noise to get past our defens­es and wreak hav­oc on our minds and the minds of those we care about. The mind is both a pow­er­ful and vul­ner­a­ble part of us. How do we strength­en our defens­es, for­ti­fy our­selves and our fam­i­ly and friends?

Our newest pod­cast answers these ques­tions and gives prac­ti­cal tools to be used now to change the tra­jec­to­ry of neg­a­tive talk and dark cloudy atti­tudes that inevitably invade our lives.

It’s good to take note of your cur­rent rela­tion­ships. Do they bring nour­ish­ment or do they bring tox­i­c­i­ty? One can bring you into ful­fill­ment, the oth­er can drain you ter­ri­bly. This episode asks the ques­tion: how does this apply to you?
