It’s a brand new year, and we have SO MUCH to look forward to. If you are like most people, you are constantly being bombarded with external forces vying for your attention and focus.

It is so difficult to stay on point with those things that are truly important. In fact, we can be so BUSY or DISTRACTED that we totally lose focus on the very reason we exist … to serve, to lead, and to make a difference.

Sometimes you just have to push PAUSE, let the dust clear, and examine your heart regarding what is important. There is a very real need to rest, pause, reflect, and reset our focus.

In this episode, I share that I am embarking on such a project … to clear the board, take inventory, and examine my own heart. I am spending the entire month of January (and maybe more) to do just that.

I am spending this time to truly evaluate who I am, why I am here, and how I can most effectively make a difference in my world.

Over the next few weeks, I will be sharing some of the key things I am pondering and evaluating. For now, let me share with you “My Personal 30-Day Reboot”.

The enemy of “GREAT” is good.

The enemy of ‘BEST’ is the status quo.

A friend of mine once shared this … “Good, better, best. Never let it rest; until your good it better, and your better is best.”

The biggest obstacle to my very best future is the success of my past. That’s right, we can become complacent and lulled to sleep when we settle for yesterday’s best.

So many people wind up peaking LONG before they ever reached the top of their potential. In a little over a week I turn 52 years old. I am determined to NEVER SETTLE.

So how can one insure that that don’t get (or stay) stuck in the quagmire of an old level of success and blessing? You have to step back … take time … search deep … and re-set on what matters most.

This is what I am doing right now. I call it My Personal Reboot 30-Day Project.

Let me be clear … I am not confused, disillusioned, or otherwise offline. I am simply taking time to rest, pause, reflect, and reset my focus. I invite you to join me.

NEXT WEEK:

Next week, I will be sharing “5 Things I Am Pondering and Asking” during this season of reflection.
