Circle of Trust
But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of earth. -Acts 1:8 NKJV
I shared this verse with the PAX because lately I had been relying too much on my own strength instead of the Lords. When I do that I find myself stuck, no action. No action due to overthinking. My home projects accumulated after much much procrastination this year. My home office was a mess and I all could do was sit in my thinking chair feeling the anxiety rise. A few weeks ago I said no more. The first 6 months this year my family gave me time to focus on two rounds of 75 Hard (150 days). The next 6 months I decided it was my turn to give back. I’m spending quality time with them and catching up home projects/maintenance. My selfish workout/race desires can get the best of me and that’s not fair to them. You live and you learn baby! It’s ok to sit in the thinking chair just don’t stay there, take action and the motivation will follow.

Special shout out to Glenn covering my 6 who also covered Gloop’s 6. DT SQ’s don’t play! I wanted to Q at my home AO on a Monday and today that came to for-wishing. Luckily for us the Monday Tennis crew joined us. The more the merrier. On Sunday I didn’t have the mental space to think of something clever so I KISS (kept it simple stupid) with a DORA and few other things. The Q Juice was flowing and I felt pretty good. We had many heavy hitters in the house and my boy Turkey Leg was in town so that was a real treat. He said it was decent yet I don’t know if he was being kind. We ran out of time for Thang 4 which was the Gloop Burpee Shuffle, they lucked out as some looked pretty gassed. Persian Kitten took the feedback I gave him like a Champ, that stood out to me (maybe it was Overthrow).
Aladdin signing off…
See you @ the TOP!
