Forget a Fitbit! What if we had a Sinbit?

Forget a Fitbit! What if we had a Sinbit?

Ok since the entire world is using this new invention called the Fitbit I have a question. If you do not know what a Fitbit is a simple Google search will bring you up to speed. Now to the question.
What if we had a sinbit instead of a fitbit. This lil thingamajig could track our thoughts, our sins, daily worship, prayer, and Christ like behavior.
 
Better yet, what if we all enrolled into a sinbit competition at work where the goal was to see who could be more Christ like, sin the least...


OMG!! ONE MUST HAVE GRIT!

OMG!! ONE MUST HAVE GRIT!

Everyone has weight loss goals, financial goals, career goals, and life goals but when things get tough we make excuses.
  • It’s too hard, I have asthma.
  • I’m just big boned.
  • I can’t eat that all the time (lean meats).
  • No one in my family graduated. Why should I?

FORBES LIST OF LIFE!

Here in the last couple of weeks I have been to a few funerals as well as mourned the loss of close friends and family. I cannot help but to reflect and reminisce on past times of laughter and gatherings that we have shared.

What is your rating?

What is your rating?

I was recently watching a movie on Netflix and thought to myself “What made me choose this movie”? Of course it was the movie rating. This particular movie had 4 stars out of 5. Of course I am going to watch it. Who wouldn’t?
 
This made me think about the world that we live in today. Everything is based off of a rating or judgment system.
 
Our common rating systems:
  • How many facebook likes we get
  • How many followers we have on instagram or twitter
  • How many people like our business on yelp
  • How many people we...


Bully Yourself

Bully Yourself

I was recently reading the definition of bullying (found below). I’ll let you guys catch up. Please read.
 
Bullying is the use of force, threat, or coercion to abuse, intimidate, or aggressively dominate others.
 
I immediately thought of myself, my friends and fellow goal setters. What if we replace that last word “others” and replace it with “ourself”?
 
Meaning the people I hang around we bully ourselves. You ask how is this possible?
 
When I set a goal and write it on paper sometimes I find myself whining:
  • I can’t...
