Fighting Life's Passion Killers

September 19, 2019

"If you are living out of a sense of obligation, you are slave."
Wayne Dyer

I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to be a slave to anything on this earth.  Being a slave means you don’t do things because you WANT to, but rather because you HAVE to.  There’s a big difference.

Nothing is more frustrating than living without passion and just going through the motions.  When there’s no passion, even the smallest and most trivial task becomes burdensome and exhausting.  However, when you’re passionate about something, the most challenging and difficult task seems enjoyable and something you look forward to.  Passion makes a world of difference!

Going Beyond the Motions

December 3, 2014

But before we focus on WHAT we should give Him, we need to first understand HOW we should give it.  As you'll see from the post below - originally written 2 years ago - HOW is more important than WHAT.
