Investing Into The Greater

Just had a great weekend and I don’t ever use it lightly when I say that. To me a great weekend meant that I grew in some area in my life and am more equipped to be the better husband, father, leader I know to be. I am curious what make a great weekend for you? Of course there are fun weekends, full of relaxation, entertainment or projects done. But this weekend was special because I invested into something very important to me.

Okay, you are thinking what is this thing you did and I am going to share what I did in a minute. But I want to share the results first.

1. I admitted my faults- This is important because vulnerability is key to growth. We all have faults and I wouldn't expect anything less. If you can say you have none, I have a number you can call to get some therapy (lol)
2. I received forgiveness — Wait what?! Forgiveness is another important stepping stone to personal, spiritual development. Forgiveness is never for the other person but for you. I needed to know I was forgiven and a clean slate awaits.
3. I was encouraged about my strengths — Do you have strengths? Of course you do, but it may not be recognized consistently day in and day out. It’s the little moments when you can remind yourself or encourage yourself of the strengths of greatness you do have.

Life Hack: Record yourself on your voice memo about what your strengths are and the positive affirmations you need to hear and play it every night for 21 days.

So, what did I do I attended a marriage conference with my wife. Yes, I invested into what is super important to me. Any time I think I have it all together I am in trouble. We have been married for 20 years this week and I need to grow more in this area more than ever. More than the first five years or the last 10 years.

My encouragement for you is that you will invest into what is important to you: Family, Marriage, Finances, Friendships, Spirit.
