Have you ever seen a tree grow? Did it strain and struggle to push out fruit or leaves? Did you hear it say, “Uuuhhhgggg! I have to try harder to make more branches today! Arrrggghhh, my leaves aren’t full enough. I have to struggle to get them to grow!” No, you haven’t, because as long as it gets water and sunlight, as long as it is in the right environment, it will grow.
Babies naturally grow...if you take care of them. If you feed a baby properly, giving them the nutrition and quantity that they need, they will grow. I was checking on my daughter as she slept last night and I noticed something, she is now sleeping in her bed diagonally. I realized, she is almost too long for her bed! Now, my wife and I need to invest in a larger bed that will facilitate her growth for the next few years.
Growth comes naturally when it is properly facilitated.
- What area are you growing in?
- What do you need to change around you to facilitate your growth?
- What can you do to maximize your growth?
- What is blocking or hindering your growth?
Sometimes we hinder our own progress by putting off the steps we need to engage. We may become distracted by life, our kids, our job, our health and/or our circumstances. I know there is an area in your life that you want to grow in. You may have already started and become distracted. I want to challenge you to choose ONE area in your life that you would like to grow in and take ONE step this week to fulfill that, to grow, to develop, to achieve success. Most positive things in life won’t happen overnight. They take preparation, determination and focus.
You can do it! You can grow. You can progress. You can advance. You can develop. You can be all that you want to be, plus more!
Leave a comment below and tell us what step you will take this week.
