Are you exhausted from the journey, or are you just weighed down by the baggage?
In this episode of Motivating Moments, Pastor Steve Evans tackles a silent momentum-killer: the unnecessary weights we choose to carry. Many leaders find themselves stuck—not because they lack vision or work ethic, but because they are "pack mules" for things that were never meant for their shoulders.
Pastor Steve breaks down the most common "extra bags" we lug around:
• Negative Assumptions: The mental energy wasted on "mind-reading" and second-guessing how we are received.
• Proxy Offenses: The dangerous habit of taking ownership of someone else’s hurt or bitterness.
• The Weight of Overwhelm: Why we feel crushed by the "whole mountain" instead of focusing on the next step.
• The Weight of Outcomes: Learning to distinguish between the inputs we control (our character and preparation) and the outcomes that belong to God.
If you’re ready to regain your forward momentum, it’s time to take an honest inventory of your thoughts. Pastor Steve shares how the discipline of mind renewal and the concept of the "Clarity Door" can help you travel light and move fast.
Stop carrying what isn't yours. It's time to find your stride again.
