The Why Behind Your Run

All human beings should try to learn before they die what they are running from, and to, and why.

— Thurber —

Reflection

Think about where your mind likes to spend its time, and you will be able to learn what you are running from and to.

For the most part, running without a why (purpose) is fear-driven.

The goal should be to quit running to and from our fears and always live in faith.

I can run much more effectively and faster when I live in faith.

How about you?

1 Corinthians 9:26, “So I run straight to the goal with purpose in every step.”

RUN TO P.E.A.C.E.

Purpose with a Plan – No matter how big or small, we all have a purpose. Your purpose lies at the intersection of your passions and your gifts. Find your PURPOSE and create a daily PLAN to help you fulfill it to the best of your ability.

Effort—Turning your dream/goal into reality requires a commitment to consistent and focused EFFORT toward executing your plan. Nothing great in life happens without working hard.

Attitude—If you believe you will achieve your dream, your chances of achieving it increase exponentially. Remember that your ATTITUDE determines your altitude in all areas of your life.

Community – Nothing great in life happens by doing it alone. The chances of achieving your dream expand as your COMMUNITY of positive mentors and coaches expand. You become the average of the five people you spend the most time with–and yes, spending time with “people” through books and instructional videos factors into your “average.”

Energy – Living a purposeful life requires optimal mental, physical, and spiritual ENERGY. Commit daily to a routine of nurturing your mental, physical, and spiritual self to provide the energy needed to live your best life on purpose.
