Yesterday was ordinary – except I had to add three hours to my schedule in the form of a bible study class that I’m attending. It seems that just doing what I know to do is easier than I ever imagined. But I confess that I’m chomping at the bit for more! Now I know…
If you know the line then you know that at this point in the movie the CIAs are considering just giving up. The movie isn’t important (except it IS a classic) but the feelings are. Yesterday went fine but I just want to give up. I’m beginning to understand that this might be part of…
This challenge has been tougher at times than I would have ever imagined possible. Life gets in the way of consistency. I understand that now but I don’t have to accept it. These last fifteen days have helped me to realize I can get it done if I just push on and do it. 8…
Marriage lessons from those who have gone before can be perfect for setting your own path. You have to make your own way because your way will be different from others. But learn from those marriage tips and then make it your own. Being married is an adventure. Anyone that tells you differently has either…
Just doing does not seem to be enough. There has to be more, right? This society has taught us that you have to measure your doing or you get nothing done. I’m trying not to get caught up in the measuring. In 1 Corinthians 4:3 Paul mentions that he does not even judge himself. He…

This challenge was set up to be about consistency and not about results, but I am already beginning to see results and I’m not even half way through the challenge. So many times in the past I have aimed for a goal but failed in the consistent steps to reach that goal. I have to…
This challenge has helped me to refocus in ways I never imagined. It’s not that I’m all of a sudden doing more than ever before. Doing little things all the time is what is making the difference. Even when people try to get me upset (cause you KNOW people do that) I have my 14…
The day can be planned to the minute. Things can be in place so that every item on the list can be implemented. But no matter how well you schedule or plan, something can come up. Yesterday I burned myself. I cook all the time and am prone to burning my hand or arm or…
My whole body feels sore. I didn’t do anything yesterday but my body feels like I ran a marathon or two. I think the pain comes from my small stumble in my own challenge yesterday. I managed to do absolutely nothing which was quite a feat since on Saturday I had a full schedule for…
