Every day that you postpone your God-dream is one more day that you feel without purpose in this world.

In today’s episode I want to take you past all of the excuses and shields that we put up to keep ourselves from a God-dream and give you tools to get unstuck from the mire of the enemy who is doing his best to keep us away from our purpose and calling in God.

After this episode you are going to feel like you now have the tools to actually make steps forward in your God-dream.

For nearly a decade now, I’ve consumed almost everything I can on time management. I’ve purchased courses, attended webinars, and created spaces to make my time management dreams come true.

And the truth is, I believe Jesus is coming back very soon, and I want to present myself to Him as someone who did not waste her time on earth, or squander the gifts and talents He has given me.

If you are in the same boat and ready to take the next few steps forward in getting your time management under God’s control, then I think you are going to be excited about these breathable, relaxing, and easy 6 ways to improve your time management today.

How To Power Up the First Step on the Way to Your God-Sized Dream

Lately I’ve been thinking about small beginnings. You see, there has been this ongoing conversation with God about the big dreams of my heart for like…well all my life. And often times those big dreams look like something that others have achieved pretty effortlessly

• Building a dream home

• Developing a platform to promote a book or business or (fill in the blank with almost any God-sized dream)

• Having a family – whether it be marriage and kids, or a church that really feels like family

And what happens when we go on for months or even years without seeing those dreams come to pass is that we are left with a huge gaping hole that Solomon described as hope deferred to a point of making the heart sick (Proverbs 13:12).

Ugh.

I think we are all WAY too familiar with that feeling.

But here’s the thing – the end of that verse says that desire fulfilled is a tree of life. So how do we power up our confidence in the God-sized dreams of our heart?

Answer: There’s a small verse tucked away in Nehemiah that has been speaking to me this week. And it’s got POWER UP YOUR CONFIDENCE written all over it.

But rarely, rarely do we see ourselves as brave, and even if we are, we don't acknowledge it. It's almost as if we require bravery from ourselves as an adult function, without recognizing how much of a milestone it really can be.

Sometimes with God size dreams were forced into positions that make us want to wilt and hope it never comes around again, whether it's a presentation, a speech, a networking event or even a controversial Facebook post. When we do brave things, we often shirk away and hope that there is no residual fallout from our out of the norm.

Some of you may know that it's a paint that doesn't drive very fast. So there was a little bit of give if I made a mistake and oftentimes what I'd find As I was working with oils, I'd be able to push the paint around in a way that really became fun for me because it meant that the moment I put the paint on the canvas, it could be fixed.
