The Power of ONE word by Jon Gordon

I repeat myself because Dave Ramsey says, "A persona has to hear something 13 times for it to register.    
I'm sure that's why the Scriptures are repetitive in teaching the same principles over & over again.  The way I started this great new outlook in moving forward the next 6 months is through the process Jon Gordon presented in his book, "The Power of ONE Word"

It's a quick read & took me less than 30 minutes.  It's always better to read the book because he explains & plants ideas in your head that will guide you more perfectly in the process of discovering your ONE word to steer your life for a year, then you discover a new word the following year.

I have a hunch that because he does this himself, that is why he's come up with some brilliant books that launches his consulting & speaking engagements all year long.  He is hired by major corporations, Pro Sports Teams, Churches, Non Profits, School Districts.....all trying to better their system & grow & prosper.  Isn't that what living a healthy, happy lifestyle is all about?  So many of us go through the stream of life with low self esteem, low motivation, low vision, & continaully "wish" for a better existence.  THIS IS THE BOOK to propel you OUT of your comfort zone!  Here's the process.

UNPLUG: Designate COMPLETE SILENCE & QUIET time just for you.  Unplug all electronics, phones, no humans to distract your attention to the process, etc.  This is YOUR TIME.  No distractions allowed.

Answer these 3 questions & keep in mind that attitudes, traditions, physical & tangible things apply:

1.) What do you need? (not want)
2.) What's in the way?
3.) What needs to go?

After you feel like you've completely & honestly answered those questions you begin the process of finding the ONE word that you will use all year long to guide your daily efforts.

PRAY.

Because human beings are so very different, each person will have a different word.  Also because God (it doesn't matter what your faith) Your GOD knows you personally, all of your faults & strengths, He knows what you need & He can let you know WHAT YOUR WORD will be if you ask.  It can take a  day, a week, or longer but YOU WILL KNOW what that word is & from that point on THAT WORD will be like the new car you bought & suddenly see everywhere on the road!  

You will notice opportunities all day long where your ONE word will steer your actions & thought processes.  You will also face oppostion to steer you away from that POWER but you will PREVAIL. I am certain of it because I'm living it  & loving it.

Really & truly...the POWER is from HEAVEN & with you & Providence moving forward hand in hand with the same purpose (He is able to work in & through you now), there's GREAT power, satisfaction & JOY that enters your life.  GOOD LUCK!
