Shut the front door. There is no way this can be happening. What was I thinking? I didn't planned for this. I didn't even want this in my life.
The questions that swirl in your mind when you are in total disbelief. You don't understand why you are where you are and even how you got there.

Now you are just attempting to survive; living day by day in extreme guilt. Struggling with distractions that pull you in all different directions that you don't think you should be doing.
Your obligations and responsibilities have overtaken your life. Your mind can't slow down to comprehend what really is a priority.
You're greeted with, "How are you?"
And it's all you can do but respond with "I'm so busy!"
Shut the front door.
Why is it that we are so great at reacting but not prioritizing?
Our mind can play tricks on us, making us think that we gotta do all this stuff. But in reality, you don't have to do any of it.
Here's a fun exercise. When you have moment later today, go write down all of the things you have to do. All those motherly duties, house cleaning, carpools, and volunteer jobs. Write it ALL down.
Then go back and draw a line through every one of them crossing them off your list.
You don't have to do any of it.
You get to do some of it.
The thing is we've convince ourselves that THIS is what life is suppose to be. Our minds wrapped up in chaos. If we're not busy, we're not living!
Where is your mind? Do you let it wander without leading the way it should go?
Be careful of the trap around the corner...You manipulating yourself and those around you; distracted, worried, and upset. The guilt is strangling your schedule and your priorities.
Shut the front door.
Are you trying to control someone else's priorities, because you can't deal with your own?
Are you manipulating yourself in your own mind attempting to get everything perfect; the perfect mom, the perfect wife, the perfect friend, the perfect sister.
Everyday life is not epic. Living life is epic!
So how are you living?
- Flustered and frustrated.
- Not getting to do what you really want to.
- Operating under obligation.
- The smile has left the room.
Everything you're upset about today, you committed to yesterday.
Shut the front door.
So how can you begin to get the madness to slow down? You're ready to jump off the obligation ship; where your responsibility ends and God's sovereignty begins.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Engage the W.A.N.T. to!Do it because you have the fire, the passion within. Your mind ready to receive the ugly, bad, and good.
Allow your language to support your opportunities, not turning them into obligations.
Shut the front door (on disbelief).
Engage the W.A.N.T. to!
- Willingness to do what doesn't want to be done (your attitude).
- Accepting of what needs to be done (prioritizing what matters).
- Never give in, give up (let God lead, you follow).
- Thankful for opportunities, not obligations (living with a heart of gratitude, welcome in more smiles).
Are you living in disbelief, leading your life behind where God wants you to be?
Manage your life the way God wants you to do.
It's time to step up to what God desires for you.
Let God write your story with His blessings and heavenly expectations. Engage in the W.A.N.T. to!
Let your mind relax knowing that God has it all figured out. Let go of the control and relinquish the manipulative, disbelief lifestyle.
Believe and live in your faith knowing that God has covered you with love and grace.
You don't have to live up to anyone's expectations. You don't have to bow down to your own expectations. You are no longer held in bondage by your thoughts.
"Your mind and thoughts are ready to engage the W.A.N.T. to."
