Making Life Messages is one of the more unilateral things God does. He decides where he is going to meet us, he creates or leverages the circumstances that get our attention and motivates us to engage him at the heart level. When we do engage him, it is Jesus that invades and transforms our hearts, too. Our job consists of two things: recognizing where he is already at work and choosing to go there with him.

A Life Message is a place in your heart where you have deeply meet Jesus, his life has replaced your natural life, and that incarnation flows out as a Message of Christ to others. Together, these Messages combine to form your being call—the essence of the Christ-in-you that is channeled through your calling role to impact others. Life Messages are individual facets of Christ’s character you specially model, while your being call is all those messages rolled together.

Ever coach someone who just can’t seem to get unstuck on the road to their destiny? Our first instinct as coaches is to help the person identify circumstances that block them or internal obstacles that hold them back, and then find a way around those obstacles. We operate this way because of a core belief most coaches share: that every person has a God-given destiny, and that anyone can find and follow that destiny today.
But what if our fundamental beliefs about destiny are wrong? Does everyone really have a destiny? And...

Last time I wrote how being driven by distraction causes us to respond to impulse and urgency to the detriment of self care and relationships. This has a domino effect in that, when self care and relationships are not adequately met, we find ourselves driven by needs. We often do this unconsciously – how many times do we just need to take a break, go for a walk or rest but instead we decide to eat something? Even though needs may go unnoticed they do have a strong influence on our

I am, sometimes to my dismay, our home's IT Expert. What that really means is that when something goes wrong, I get to try to fix it. When internet connectivity problems kept me busy all of last week, it caused me to reflect on what happens in my personal life when I am not aware of the "default settings" that keep me stuck where I am, rather than moving forward into the life God wants me to live.

In the end, whether we are remembered for the tragedies of our lives or our response to them is largely a matter of the choices we make.

When I first started looking at a business opportunity, it really wasn't planned. I had been approached by someone to participate in a direct sales business. I didn't know the person, and I actually never saw them again after I joined. Much of what I learned throughout my 6 years of working that business, I learned through great trial and error and I was never truly “successful” in getting the results I wanted.

Getting ready to market yourself for that next level career within your company means you must take a hard look in the mirror to decide what reality is right now and what we're willing to do to step up your skills. You must prepare just like you do for an outside job or career change.

This drove Felicia to her knees in prayer: she got honest with herself about who she is, what she believed and what she really wanted to do.
What is that still small voice whispering to you?
Where do you need to trust in the Lord?
In what ways will you reinvent?
What action will you take today?

In a survey done with people in their 90's the question was asked about what regrets these seniors had. Most of the answers were surprisingly the same. They expressed regrets about not taking more risks in life or doing things that would live on after they were gone or just simply having more fun.

It's that time of year again when things gear up; school is starting, business ramps up, holiday season planning begins. It's the season when my clients really start to say: "I'm overwhelmed!" "How can I get it all done?" "I need more time."

Woman of Destiny, arise! Your time has come! The Word of the Lord has been spoken! Your day is at hand, but do you have what it takes?

Paul, one of my first coaching clients, engaged me to help him discover a sense of purpose in his life. Several months into the relationship, his teenage son was tragically killed in a car accident. That event completely changed Paul's focus and his sense of what was meaningful in life. Over the next year, we talked about issues like transparency, grieving, how to allow others to support you, who your real friends are, and much more.
When Paul was finally ready to reengage the life purpose question, nothing seemed to really motivate him. We looked at several different business or ministry tracks he could have gone down, but nothing clicked--until he hit on the idea of setting up memorial funds to help young families with the financial burden of adoption. The idea was...
