Hey Guys (and Gals), I know it's been a while since my last post, but I have been taking time to gauge where I am in life. I speak prosperity, motivation, stretching yourself, and pushing your personal limits to many people; however, I hadn't been speaking them to MYSELF. At a point I thought maybe that was selfish, but as I progressed in life, I found myself pouring so much into others, that I forgot about ME. I would become so emotionally, physically, and spiritually drained that all I could do was lie down and go to sleep. After a while, I began to realize that, yes, God has given you a gift, but in order to benefit from the gift, I must utilize it for me as well. Now, by no means do I speak of a state of depression or anything with a negative connotation. Just like a car must be maintenanced, so must we! I began to make more time for me. I read more. I meditated more. I wrote out my personal vision. I sought people who would pour into me. I eliminated time spent with persons who were not adding value to my life. I paid more attention to family. I gave my all to God.
Needless to say, things rapidly began to change. I have a different outlook now. I am still as motivated as ever, but now I have more of an inner peace. Nothing phases me too much. I realize I cannot save everyone, but the one's lives that I do touch will be GREATLY changed. I am no one special. I simply sought out God's purpose for my life, and I actively seek to fulfill it every day. YOU have the same opportunity!

This was a blessing for me, Spiritually it reminded me of how I've become destracted which led to disconnection.Thanks for sharing, be blessed.
It is good to know that you are taking some "you" time. I could have said it but we need to "come into the light" about some things accoring to God's timing. I am proud of you, keep up the good work. Just do not forget about the little people once you start traveling the globe motivating.
