Change Time
Making changes in your life can be difficult.
There comes a time when you have to take a good long look at yourself and make some changes. People around you may be telling you about the changes you need to make, but it’s all up to you. Until you make up your mind, develop a process of change and then work your process; you will never change. Don’t try to change without a process and without a few close friends to keep you accountable. It’s what inspected not expected that gets done. I have had to make some minor and major changes in my life. I have an addictive personality. If 1 is good then 17 got to be better. This is a major weakness that I have to work on. Not keep under control, but change completely. I will not be controlled or lead by an addictive personality. Yeah, change can be difficult but not impossible. I know that if I can make changes in my life then you can as well. We are all in this together. Don’t give in and quit. Keep up, develop your process and then use that to be the Champion that you are. Are you ready to make some changes today?

Champion’s Desire
Champion’s desire to make a difference is so powerful, the craving so intense, that he’ll alter his life to get it.
This is what separates a Champion from the rest of the crowd. However, being relentless is a driving force in a Champion’s life. When you are willing to change your life to be the difference in someone else’s life; then you are close to being a Champion. When you actually make the change then you are a Champion. We have said several times that it doesn’t matter what you do. You don’t have to be the football coach of a major college football team to be a Champion. You may be a stay at home mom and be a Champion. It does not make a difference how you are the difference. Never allow yourself or anyone else tell you that you don’t matter or make a difference. You have been created to be the difference in someone’ s life. It may be one person or thousands. Do what you do the best. It’s time to step up and be who you were placed here to be. Are you ready to make changes in your life?

Making A Change
It can take a long time to prepare to change or decide to change or want to change.
Change though happens in a heartbeat. People will tell you that they can’t change. This is not true. People can change, the thing is most of us don’t want to change. The change itself is quick, it’s deciding to change that takes longer. When discussing change I hear more excuses than anything else. Change takes discipline and discipline isn’t fun for most. However, once you learn that changing isn’t as bad as it is made out to be, you will welcome it. Change is growth and growth is necessary to reach your destiny. Make sure you prepare for the change you’re facing and not make snap decisions. However, don’t let the discipline of change stop you. Face change head on and make it work for you rather you working for it. When you accept change then you can become the change that is necessary in the world. Are you ready to make a change today?

Pushing Buttons
More often than not, the person who really makes our life difficult is pushing a button that reminds us of somebody we do not want to be.
We all have an inner person that comes out sometimes that we really don’t like. There have been times when I would say or do something that would show me that there are still issues inside of me that I don’t like. So what is the answer to getting this “person” out of us? I think if we start acting more like the person we are becoming; we will see positive results. The saying is; stop pulling weeds and keep planting grass. The more of the truth and positive we put in, the less of the negative we will demonstrate. We want to get to the point to when our buttons are pushed we respond in the way we want to. We want to respond in a positive way. It may not be how we want to respond at first but in time the good will prevail over the bad. You got this! Become the person you were meant and created to be. Is someone pushing your buttons today?

Doing a Work
Sometimes when God is doing a work in our lives, it can begin to feel a little uncomfortable.
We may encounter people who are hard to get along with or have circumstances that seem beyond our control. When this happens, instead of complaining, getting sour or trying to change everything around you, why don’t you look deep inside and say, “Lord, thank You for doing a work in me.” See, I’ve learned that God is more interested in changing me than He is in changing my circumstances. If I choose to stay sour because I’m not getting my way or discouraged because things aren’t happening on my time table, that’s going to keep me right where I am. If you want to see change the key is to bloom right where you’re planted. You can’t wait until everything gets better before you decide to have a good attitude. You have to be the best that you can be right where you are. When you bloom where you’re planted, you’re allowing God to work in you, and He will be faithful to complete what He’s started in you. Are you letting God do a work in you?

Change of Perspective
Challenge your limiting beliefs and your perspective.
It’s easy to get focused on what’s wrong in life, what we don’t have, and how big our obstacles are. If we’re not careful, we’ll lose sight of all the good things God has done. We’ll take for granted our family, friends, health and the opportunities God has blessed us with. We’ll get so busy and stressed out that we won’t appreciate the gift of today. What’s happened? Our perspective has gotten off. Perspective is all about how we see a situation. There’s power in your perspective because you will draw into your life what you constantly meditate on. Business may be slow. The economy may be down. The wrong perspective is, “I’ll never make it. It’s just too much.” The right perspective is, “I was created with a purpose. I can do this.” Today, I encourage you to evaluate your perspective. Choose focus on the truth no matter what is happening in your circumstances. Remember, as you set your perspective in the right direction, your life will follow. When you keep an attitude of believing the best and expectancy, you open the door for the best to happen to you. What is your perspective today?

Change It
Most people have things in their lives that they want to change — old habits, addictions or something they want to overcome.
The world offers so many “solutions” to improve your life; but really, the only way we are truly changed, the only way to be permanently transformed is by renewing your mind with the truth. We shouldn’t follow the pattern of the world. What is the pattern of the world? It’s the constant striving to do more, be more and have more that only leads to weariness, emptiness and frustration. That’s not what God intends! Instead, focus your thoughts on the truth because when you make the truth your number one focus, something awesome takes place. Only you can control the doorway to your mind. Nobody can do this for you. You choose what you meditate on and what you set before your eyes. I encourage you to stay on the offensive and diligently guard your mind and heart because when you do things God’s way, you get God’s results — life, peace and joy! Are you focused on the truth today?

New Season
Are you ready for a new season in your life?
Sometimes, in order to move forward into the life God has for you, you have to be willing to let go of the old. The things that are behind you are not nearly as important as what is out in front of you. It’s time to get ready for the new! You may have had some unfair things happen, things that you don’t understand; but let me tell you, you have come too far to stop now. Instead of allowing those things to hold you back, why don’t you let go and take a step of faith into the new? It’s time to get a new, bigger vision; it’s time to get a new, fresher outlook; it’s time to rise up with a new attitude! Instead of settling where you are, pick up and move forward. Have the attitude that says, “I may not understand it; it may not have been fair, but I am not getting stuck on this page. I know God has a new season for me — a season filled with victory!” Are you ready to move into your new season?
