Reset

Don’t you wish you could go back and press the reset button on certain moments in your life? Kinda like a do-over. Not really regret, but I could have made a better decision. Well, maybe its just me. I definitely feel that way. Maybe I spoke too soon or I moved too fast. I definitely have a few of those situations. We can’t change the past, but we can learn from it. We can choose to do things differently. We can reset our path every time we change our mind. Everyday is a new day to get it right. Every moment is an opportunity to reset.

Seize the Moment

We don’t always recognize the “moments” in our life until they pass. We can only hope that they were captured in a photograph and not just a memory. Everyday is filled with “moments.” Everyday is filled with opportunities and chances that could lead us in a different direction. When we are faced with life-changing decisions, those are the moments we should seize. Sometimes, you don’t need to weigh the pros and cons. Sometimes, you just need to take that leap of faith. Sometimes, you just need to lean in for that kiss. Sometimes, you just need to seize the moment.

Contribution

I sat in church yesterday and listened to the guest speaker, Sam Collier say, "there's a difference between a moment and a movement." He spoke about the conversion of Paul being a moment that led to a movement. I began to think about all the moments in my life that could have led to a movement. I thought about the moments when fear and doubt paralyzed me. Then, I thought about all the times I moved. I thought about all the times I finished. I finished starting the business. I threw that show. I wrote those books. I sold those t-shirts. I made those cards. I wrote those poems. Those are my contributions. Those are my movements. It's easy to focus on what you didn't do, but what have you finished? What did you accomplish? What's your contribution? Maybe it's that little boy or little girl you are raising. Maybe it's that overtime you are putting in at your job. Maybe it's those ideas that are keeping you up at night. Whatever it is, you have something the world needs.
