“You only get to live once, but if you do it right once is enough.”

I read this statement by Jim Rohn and thought it was a profound life lesson. He said, “Here’s what my parents taught me. Don’t miss anything. Don’t miss the game. Don’t miss the performance, don’t miss the movie, don’t miss the show, don’t miss the dance. Go to everything you possibly can. Buy a ticket to everything you possibly can. Go see everything and experience all you possibly can”

What a great lesson! Too often we get caught up in our day-to-day grind that we miss out on so much of life! My encouragement to you today is simple: Don’t Miss Anything!

It’s fine because I’ll know that every person who sits and thinks I’ve got it wrong hasn’t discovered the secret to productivity — but for every person ready to take a good look at the truth of productivity, get ready for a game-changer.

So we keep on praying for you, asking our God to enable you to live a life worthy of his call. May he give you the power to accomplish all the good things your faith prompts you to do. -II Thess 1:11

Have you ever had a dream in your heart to be something, but you never told anyone? Or maybe you never started to work on your dream because you didn’t know if you would be any good at it, so you put your dream on hold.

You want so desperately to be a leader, a writer, a speaker, a singer, a church staff member, a church planter, entrepreneur, fill in the blank  _______, but nobody has ever told you that you should be that, so you backed out. We dream. We fear. We give up. Repeat.
