It’s easy to get into a survival mode when times get tough and things aren’t going our way. When this happens, it’s tempting to just hunker down and settle where we are and not believe for increase, not believe to go any further in life.

If you watch the news reports long enough about the economy and the price of gas and how groceries are going up, it’s tempting to think “If I can just hold on”, “If I can just make it through another year”. And if we’re not careful, we’ll develop this survival mentality to where we are not releasing our faith and where we do not believe to rise any higher. We become satisfied if we just break even.

One of the battles we have to fight is the battle with discouragement. Our dreams don’t always happen on our timetables. We go through disappointments and adversities. When this happens, it’s easy to lose our enthusiasm and zeal for life.

It’s good to have family and friends that encourage us and cheer us on but one thing I’ve learned is that other people cannot keep us encouraged. They may give us a boost and help us from time to time. But if you’re really going to live in victory, that encouragement has to come from the inside. You’ve got to learn to encourage yourself.

We all have challenges and setbacks that come against us. We were not created to be overcome. We were created to be the overcomer.

Our attitude toward our problems is really important. What do we do when a situation is not working out and is going on month after month? It’s tempting to get sour and to start expecting the worst. Our mind plays out all the possible scenarios. It’s easy to get down and discouraged. (continue reading…)

It’s important to develop an overflow mentality. We’re not supposed to just have our needs supplied. We’re supposed to be so blessed that when other people get around us, it overflows on to them. We should be a blessing to others.

If we’re going to live life in abundance, we’ve got to have an overflow mentality. You’ve got to know that it’s God’s dream for you to prosper. We were never created to barely get by. We weren’t created to have to constantly struggle. Don’t settle where you are. All through the day remind yourself that God takes pleasure in prospering you. (continue reading…)

There are all kinds of voices and all kind of thoughts we can tune into. It’s just like with a radio station. There are hundreds of different frequencies in the air right now all around us. If we have a receiver, we could tune in to station after station. If something comes up that you don’t really like. It’s no big deal. You don’t make yourself sit there and listen to it. You don’t just endure it. You simply hit a button and switch over to a different channel. (continue reading…)

One of the most pervasive myths in our culture today is that we are entitled to a great life – that somehow, somewhere, someone (certainly not us) is responsible for filling our lives with continual happiness, exciting career options, nurturing family time, and blissful personal relationships simply because we exist.

But the real truth is that there is only one person responsible for the quality of life you live.

That person is you. (continue reading…)

A friend sent me a link to this compilation of words of wisdom from Will Smith. The best 10 minutes I’ve spent this year and I felt I had to share it. Watch it. Let me know what you think in the comments section.

This video is tremendously motivating to me; as is this poem by Marianne Williamson:

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear
is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our
darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to
be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? (continue reading…)
