What to remember
There were probably aspects of that you were drawn to and wanted to do and love to do, which I would tell people, do that now.
A lot of people want a certain life and certainly want to be successful and and feel like we're moving forward.
Key Scriptures
Luke 14

The story behind the idea

If I'm not a morning person to go work out and I'm still doing that, maybe I should just stop it. Maybe I should figure out a better time where it works more effectively. Uh, but you know, for me, I like working out in the morning time, so it's something that that I continue.

What stands out

I mean, they they saw something that said we can get from here to better, and we need to make a change to do it. Uh, I remember you talking about um something serious, and then you can come back with some thoughts. Remember, well, I mean, you remember, uh, but Ben had very serious heart scare condition that really became known in the time that I was there with him, and it it meant potential life change.

Why it matters

A lot of people want a certain life and certainly want to be successful and and feel like we're moving forward. Maybe one of the best ways to get started, and obviously, I think everything we're saying here, we understand from a faith standpoint, right?

A faithful way forward

You wanted to run a marathon, you saw yourself doing it, it mattered to you. There were probably aspects of that you were drawn to and wanted to do and love to do, which I would tell people, do that now. Don't worry about what people think about it, don't worry about if it's gonna turn into something, just take the stuff you're already drawn to do and do it.

Put it into practice

One of the things that I rest on is okay, my life is I'm content. I have a I have a happy life, I think in general, a happy, joyful life, and what that can keep you from doing is it can keep you from visualizing better.

Think about it

Take the idea with you.
