Stop letting the world decide what matters. You call the shots.
I hope you are the one calling the shots in your life.
Think about it. Who’s making the decisions?
Is it the world, the Joneses, culture, or other people?
We can’t blame others for the decisions we’ve outsourced.
This quote by Iain Thomas is one I return to often:
“And every day, the world will drag you by the hand, yelling,
‘This is important! And this is important!
You need to worry about this! And this! And this!’And each day, it’s up to you to yank your hand back,
put it on your heart, and say, ‘No. This is what’s important.’”
— Iain Thomas.
Life is full of distractions and noise.
There’s constant pressure to conform, to align with beliefs and agendas that may not serve your current season or goals.
Your focus and energy are your greatest assets.
When they’re hijacked, you’re no longer in control.
Your choices and decisions matter.
Be mindful of giving away your autonomy — because there are real consequences when you do.
This is your God-given right:
You get to decide where to focus and invest your time and energy.
Don’t let anyone take that away from you.
When life feels overwhelming, remember what’s truly important. You are important.
Come what may — you call the shots!
