If Life Is Kicking Your Butt – Turn Around dummy!!

Posted by Dr. H June 12th, 2010

If Life is kicking your butt?..It is not hard to figure out to quit giving it that target!!

With all that is going on in our country today It would be foolish to think that it would not have a rippling effect that is tearing through all areas of our lives.  Let me give you an example…when someone loses their job there is of course the immediate understanding you have to now come up with another source of income…but there also comes with that many farther reaching and more long term issues that most people don’t think about, like..  The fear of not being able to find another job.. the embarrassment of losing the one you had..the effect it might have on your whole family structure, what about your kids , the house you might lose, on and on….. All of that is real but I want to talk to you about the real problem that arises out of this hopelessness millions are feeling !!  If they have not  already lost their job, there are millions who have taken pay cuts, and many more fear it will be gone tomorrow… What if…. What if… What if… Living in fear of What if is a Living Hell !!

The true defeat here was not the loss your job or stuff…. It is when you lost your FIGHT !!! Stuff happens and will continue to if you are still breathing, you can always get more stuff ...but it is when we lose the dream we have lost the fight …and a life of mediocrity is inevitable at best !!!

Quit letting life kick your butt !!  Turn Around !!

I can hear you from here… how do I turn this around !!  Easy !!

The situation you are in right now is not where you are loosing the game.  It is in your position!!

The moment you bought into the fear ..you lost !!

You cannot properly reposition yourself for success if you allow or own defeat!!

From a position of these two mindsets ( Fear or Defeat ) there is no way you can reposition yourself for your victory !!

You need to ask yourself if this is how you want to live the rest of your life… if not.. Turn Around !! I know you are thinking right now if you could have you would have, and you have already called me a few choice names…. my response to you is.. I know from which I am speaking !!!!!

No  situation can defeat a person who has decided to win !!!

It is merely a time to reposition yourself in this new climate you now live in !!

Life is going to happen, we cannot make the entire world market submit to us personally and give us everything we deserve !!  But… we sure can reposition ourselves to make our life what we have dreamed it can be…quit waiting for the world to right itself and give you what you think it should !! ...get up and go get it !!

If you still have breath in your lungs …. It is not over… You are not dead or done !! Quit submitting to defeat and fear …. Turn around and kick their butt !!

First thing is stop the wound licking… no one who feels sorry for themselves ever win !!

Next , sit down and get a true representation on where things really are.  Not a distorted view through fear and defeat… these always exaggerate  a thing and make it appear utterly hopeless… which is a complete lie !!  This is where you might need a friend who isn’t an enabler..other wise you will both just be sitting there with tissues feeling sorry for yourself.  I truly recommend an advisor that your problem seems small to !! You can’t talk to someone about hundreds of thousands if thousands is a a lot to them.  I don’t care if you have to pay a good financial problem solver …. get a view that can see the answer and success !!!

Be willing to change !!! This is a biggie… most people just want to complain about things but are not willing to change something to build a new tomorrow!  Those people will never achieve their dream !!!  You can !!! Who cares if you have to get more education or training for a new field.  We should be learning the rest of our lives !!!

Make a Plan !! This can be an exciting time for you… being able to sit down and dream again !!!  How fun this journey will be will be decided in these moments.  Come into your plan with fresh eyes… not through the lens of your last defeat !!  Do not look back…..

Don’t let your past experience decide your next one !!! Look forward… make a plan… and walk it out !  What is your other option ??

…. there were four lepers outside the city walls.. times were REALLY bad.. the city was starving to death so there were no scraps for the lepers..(sound familiar)  It didn’t get more bleak then the life of a leper in a long season of drought !!! They had to live off of the leftovers of others.  They were literally dying of hunger when one of them (Thank God for someone who is not willing to stop) told the others lets risk everything and go to the encampment of our enemies which is right outside the city to see if we can find anything to eat !  They were literally risking their lives because first of all they were heading straight into the enemy’s camp and because of their situation would be stoned on sight to begin with … either way it looked like a lose – lose !!

NO GUTS NO GLORY !!!

Do Not Be Afraid Of New Harvest Fields !!!

… but one has some sense and declared it is better just to go try then to sit there and DIE !!  Either way the result is no worse.... but it could absolutely be an answer !!  When they got up and started walking ….

The Lord multiplied their footsteps.. and the enemy heard an army instead of four lepers... they fled their camp and not only did the lepers eat and had plenty.. they told the city and now all of them had abundance !!!

The absolute most important thing needed is God !!

Obviously we can make plans and try to live them out.  There are millions who have done that and failed.  The difference here is when you add The Lord to the mix… Success Is Inevitable !!!  … I wish above all things that you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers !!

He wants you blessed… but your soul needs to prosper !!  Change your mind !!

When He is in your life … I mean really …. not a visitor ! He will bring the mountains down low…the valleys up high… and make the crooked places straight…

He is a multiplying God.. He will multiply what you give Him… EVEN YOUR FOOTSTEPS OF FAITH  … Moral to the story !!

HE IS BIGGER THAN YOUR PROBLEM !!!      He is the LORD… JESUS !

… I have never seen the righteous forsaken or His seed begging for bread !!

He will make a way where there was no way… bring Him all your broken pieces and let Him begin to sculpt you new !!!

I know from which I speak  … He has been this to me for 30 years !!!
