Do you have a dream in your heart but going anywhere fast?
Have you been saying, “someday I’ll…” Write a book, change careers, start a family, learn a new skill…but some days never seem to come?
Do you know what to do to make your purpose a reality but freeze up instead of moving forward?
Today is part 4 of our personal growth series. You’ve learned fulfilling your destiny all starts with your beliefs. Your beliefs affect your thoughts, and your thoughts determine your words. Well, your words produce something that moves the ball down the field toward your dreams.
Today is for you if…
About ten years ago, I finally started to have a dream. If anyone ever asked me what I wanted during that time, I would say, “I’m going to write Bible Studies one day.”
Except for one day never came…until I read The Seven Decisions by Andy Andrews. The Deathbed exercise brought me back to reality. I was saying one day but never took any action.
“Your beliefs become
Your thoughts.
Your thoughts become
Your words.
Your words become
Your actions…
–Mahatma Gandhi
Your Words create your Actions.
Belief creates> Thoughts create > Words create > Actions
Here are three steps to creating the actions that fulfill your destiny–your God-given purpose.
Examine Current Actions
Are your actions leading you to the life you desire or not?
You’ve got to know where you’re starting to get to where you want to go.
If you’re getting up every day watching Netflix and scrolling social media, those actions won’t get you anywhere near your dream.
Pick a New Action
What new Actions do I need to take to get me to the right destiny?
Maybe, you dream of sharing your story or the message God gave you, and you want to do that through speaking.
Example: What action can you take right now toward that dream?
If you are unsure of the right path or purpose, check out the podcast series starting with “Episode138 - What’s your biggest wish for the new year” to get you started.
Also, you don’t have to have 50 new actions…start with one or two that get you moving and move the ball down the field.
Reverse Engineer the New Action
Reverse Engineer the action to produce the results you desire
Belief > Thoughts > Words > Actions
What new Words do I need to speak to create the action?
What new Thoughts do I need to think to create the new Words?
What new Beliefs do I need to embrace to create the right thoughts?
The new beliefs, thoughts and words are the FUEL to actually do the new actions.
Fear is one of the biggest obstacles to taking action and changing our beliefs, thoughts and words. If you’ve been making excuses for years, isn’t it time you live fearlessly free? Get my three habits to live fearlessly free and jumpstart your courageous life today.
