I wanted to share my daily goals that I try to put into practice every day. I was always taught that if you don't have a target that you're aiming at, you won't hit anything. 

 

God has been doing a spiritual renewal in me this year and I'm more in tune with God than I've been in a long time. Much of it has to do with my focus and reaching my daily goals. The Apostle Paul wrote in Philippians 2:12 - I have not already attained it or have I become perfect. Verse 14 says, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. 

 

I encourage you to set your own daily life goals, get into God's Word and press into to Jesus. Having a set of daily goals will help keep you focused, and you will achieve more in your life than you imagined. You can adapt some of my goals or make your own list. If you search the Bible, you will find these are all biblical truths. 

 

 

My five daily life goals plus one!

 

 

My #1 Overall Goal:

I seek to love God and love people every day!

Faith, hope and love, the greatest is love!

 

 

1 – Control the controllables

Leave the rest to God. You are not put on the earth to be a controller but a follower. (A Jesus follower) 

 

2 – Define my why

Why am I doing what I’m doing. Why do I think, like I think?  

 

3 – Be present / Be intentional

Be in the moment / I can't live in the past. 

Challenge my excuses. An excuse is just a reason people give to do what they don't want to do. 

 

4 – Practice kindness everyday

The least I can do every day is to be kind to others.

 

5 – I have permission to have emotions

I can cry, I can laugh and it’s all a good day. I won't get too high or too low. 

 

My attitude, my effort and my actions give credibility to my testimony – my story.

 

Everyday your life is telling a story. Is your story a God story or self-story? 

Your attitude, your, effort, your actions give credibility to your story. Is your story credible?
