This is supposed to be the fourth writing this month, yet it is the first. I decided to write anyway, I chose to make an irreversible commitment to a group of younger friends. I made a promise, one that would have made me irresponsible if I rescinded. I told them, before next week is over, my first post would be out.
This post is written to encourage, motivate and shoot some adrenalin into some sleepy, weary souls already giving up on a total, complete and fulfilling life in 2014.
I can imagine someone thinking to himself, I would start in February, January is not already over. No! You are wrong it isn't . Start now!
Sometimes, the perfect time is whenever you start executing the project you intend to undertake. To begin, you however have to overcome that initial reluctance to start.
That initial reluctance, termed Inertia, is a monster! May be you have another nomenclature for it but it is just as harmful.
It will give you a reason to start later.
Inertia is an enemy of your projects. It might initially appear to be:
your thoughtful friend; that feeling to be safe, and hold off because you are not ready.
your diligent analyzer; keeps evaluating and re-evaluating without inspiring you tote point of action.
your patient incubator; tells you to keep processing those ideas, gives you the impression that your ideas are always at infancy, even after you have processed them.
Inertia could give you a thousand and one other reasons to do nothing.
Don't let it take you forever to realize that Inertia is your project inhibitor(prevents you from doing anything).
Someone once said, "never leave till tomorrow what you can do today, for tomorrow will wait, but time will not". That first step is the toughest to overcoming inertia, take the step anyway!
If you have been very affectionate and loving to Inertia, it is high time you got disaffectionate and uncaring about it. Don't let it stand in the way of your progress, take that first step.
End that romance with Inertia by making a move.
God has done all he is ever going to do! It is your move.
The Total Life is indeed the reserve of Children of God who would dare to act on the instructions or ideas God has given them.
Make this confession:
God is producing in me, the desires and the actions that please him.
The force of God propels me to overcome every form of Inertia.
My destiny is not impeded, rather it is maximized.
The Blessing is at work and I allow it do a total work.
I have a Total Life.
