In 20 years, I am going to be 56 years old.
At 36, I am more Grateful for Life than I ever have been
At 36, I’m focused on Leading my Family Team
At 36, God is giving me something to say
At 36, I’m focused on Listening and Learning from Others Experiences
At 36, I have the opportunity to live out my passion and purpose daily:
At 36, I’m more convinced than ever that consistency compounds
At 36, I’m focused on developing deep friendships
At 36, I’m more convinced than ever that living for God is all that matters.
These next 20 years are absolutely essential in my life for so many reasons but they are not the reasons that you might be thinking.
While everyone else will be chasing money and security, I will be chasing after and fulfilling the call of God in my life.
And you know what is going to happen….
I am either going to look back either with regret for not pursuing my calling OR with fulfillment, knowing that I pursued God’s calling with everything that I have.
I too, hope that you do the same thing as well.
At the end of the day, know matter what you are called to do and your vocation, we are called to lead people and get people into heaven, however we are gifted to do so.
No pressure, but it’s up to you to decide how you are going to get there!
