To discovering and understanding your strengths and abilities ask yourself three questions.

  1. What things do you do well naturally, that you have a natural aptitude for, things that are very easy for you?
  2. What things are you able to do well because of special training, education, and/or practice?
  3. What things in the lists above do you also really enjoy doing and you receive a sense of fulfillment in doing?

Got Clarity?
In a recent survey of 3500 professionals by Michael Hyatt, the biggest challenges people face are not having enough time (52%), money (37%), or clarity (37%) to accomplish what they want in life.
The results of this survey gave me great encouragement concerning the GPS Life Journey. The GPS Life Journey gives people clarity concerning their God-given purposes in life. After participating in the GPS Life Journey, even people who may have already had a sense of direction concerning their life purposes state that they gained greater clarity concerning God’s plan for their lives.
The GPS Life Journey is all about clarity…
·       Clarity of who identity - who am I and how has God  designed me.
·       Clarity of purpose - what is God’s purpose for the next stage of my life.
·       Clarity of strategy - what things do I need to do next to fulfill my God-given purpose.
·       Clarity of stewardship – how can I use my god-given resources of finances and time to better accomplish God’s plan for my life.
·       Clarity of spirituality – in what areas of my spiritual life do I need growth to increase my spiritual capacity.
The GPS Life Journey is designed to slay your challenge dragons. Do you want to accomplish what you want in life? Overcome life’s challenges with greater clarity.

You are a Work of Art

It was Michelangelo who said, “The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection.”  While perfection for us is unattainable, we can discover our “work of art,” the mission for our life.  The experience of most is that this is one of life’s greatest rewards.  Once we understand our design and engage with others who understand theirs, we will be a great force for good.

A Mission from God?
In the movie “The Blues Brothers,” Dan Akroyd deadpans: “We’re on a mission from God.” He and his partner are in the process of putting their band back together and are enlisting an old band mate. Akroyd's character flatly insists that the divine origin of their project is sufficient warrant for the man to rejoin the band.  As people who are seeking to find the significant thing that we were destined to do, we really are on our own “mission for God.”
