But there you lay, paralyzed with fear and failure. Well, the sure thing is, if you continue to lie there, you will fail. But the fear part is yet to be determined.

Why are we so quick to assume the worst? What we are considering may have nothing to do with the thoughts we conjure up.

We live in a world of make-believe. We dream something amazing yet knock it to the ground before even considering options or reality.

Your dreams are simply that, make-believe…. UNTIL you put action behind them.

Napoleon Hill says, “A goal is a dream with a deadline.”

The problem is that a dream is all pretend until you take aim! You can even set a deadline, but that doesn’t necessarily create action.

So you need direction and an established focus so you can begin taking one step at a time to lead you to miles of greatness.

However, you have to be REAL! Life is beautiful and all roses in make-believe. The princess always finds her prince.

But in real life, you are going to hit walls, dead ends, and even make mistakes.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Expect the unexpected!

Both the good, the bad, and the ugly. However, don’t let the unknown freeze you to the point of paralysis.

You were created to move; physically, emotionally, spiritually, relationally, creatively. With any movement, there is a chance of a win, a loss, or a “I have no idea” event.

Expect the unexpected.

Don’t let all your worries bombard your dreams. Don’t let all your past failures dictate the possibilities.

Expect the unexpected.

Good can be present with bad. So don’t always look on the dark side. Instead, look on the brighter side of what you control.

You control your actions and movements. You get to decide what to do when and how you will go about performing it.

Stay present when you get tired and your heart is heavy. This too shall pass. Stay connected to your dream by taking aim on a daily basis with even just a sentence of hope. Stay mobile by choosing to chase what God put in your heart.

With everything you say and do, make today count. Don’t count what didn’t happen, or what should have happened. This is the day that the Lord has made, search your heart and move by the beat of gratitude. Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!

“Expect the unexpected!”
