And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that ye may prove what is good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. -Romans 12:2

To truly hear, you must quiet the mind- Unknown

In his highly acclaimed book 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Stephen R. Covey explains the first habit is to become proactive; he states that change starts from within, and highly effective people make the decisions to improve their lives through the things that they can influence rather than by simply reacting to external forces. Seeking to understand how thoughts guide actions and improve our health, wealth, quality of life is becoming a mantra in our society. We are living in a time of abundance- people are
constantly retooling-retraining- recycling their job/work/relationship experience for something that is a mutual fit. How do we transform? The bible tells us in Romans 12:2 by the renewing of our hearts and minds. In order to gain the winning life that you want, you have to have an honest head clearing. Risk being honest with yourself and embrace honesty that will ultimately lead you to the right fit for you!

Prayer: Dear God, transformation is in order for me, I’ve become caught in a rut-Grant me your divine guidance as I clear my thoughts and turn my heart towards you. AMEN!
