Is Time on Your Side?

Recovery, success, wealth building, weight loss, career, whatever it is you are pursuing, is a journey, a process, a slow, maturing series of events. I wish I would have embraced the healing process years ago and made "slight edge" changes back then, but I didn't. However, I CAN choose today to change. I can live today, in the moment, and make choices today, that will move me out of the past failures and into future successes. It may take months and even years, but it starts with today. Today is a gift. May I receive it, enjoy it, and let it lead me to tomorrow's gift. And then, the next....

Happy Thanksgiving!

Words to inspire this holiday:
Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge 

The most powerful force for change is time. Position your daily actions so time is working for instead of against you. Because time with either promote you or expose you. What keeps you on the path is your Slight Edge philosophy which includes your understanding of the secret of time. Knowing that if I stay on this path long enough I will get the results I want.

In today's world, everyone wants to go directly from plant to harvest. The step we keep overlooking is the step of cultivating. And that, unlike planting and harvesting, takes place only through the patient dimension of time. The right choices you make today, compounded over time, will you take you higher up the success curve.

As Dr. Fred Wolfe said, "We want victory without the battle."

Joshua 24:15, The Message (MSG)

¹⁵ “If you decide that it’s a bad thing to worship God, then choose a god you’d rather serve—and do it today. Choose one of the gods your ancestors worshiped from the country beyond The River, or one of the gods of the Amorites, on whose land you’re now living. As for me and my family, we’ll worship God.”
