Drop the Ball

You’re three months into your goal!  How are you holding up?!  

If you were sitting with John Acuff, author of Finish, he would tell you, “The only way to accomplish a new goal is to feed it your most valuable resource: time.  And what we never like to admit is that you don’t just give time to something, you take it from something else.  To be good at one thing you have to be bad at something else.” 

So what do you need to be bad at in order to accomplish your greater goal?  What ball do you need to drop?

You have limits!  You can’t do everything well!  Maybe it’s time to let weeds grow in your lawn in order to spend more time with your family.  Maybe you eat frozen meals more often to cut time in the kitchen and create time to study. Maybe you drop social media to make time for your new hobby.

Take 10-15 minutes to evaluate where you are and brainstorm a list of things in your life you can simplify or drop. 

You are investing in yourself and on your way to meeting your goals!
