"When you look in the mirror, what do you see? Do you see the real you, or what you have been conditione to believe is you? The two are so, so different. One is an infinite consciousness capable of being and creating whatever it chooses, the other is an illusion imprisoned by its own perceived and programmed limitations." ~ David Icke What are your limitations? You know, your physical strength; how much you can eat; how much sleep you need or not need. How much can you multi-task, or like Chalene Johnson says "toggle" back and forth. Regardless of the teeter toter, what are your limitations? Limitations are restraining, restrictive. They can hold you back. Limitations can be our excuses. They can also keep us within our comfort zone. The question is, how do you use your limitations? "The God we serve does not seek out the perfect, but insteaqd uses our imperfections and our shortcomings for His greater good. I am humbled by my own limitations. But where I am weak, He is strong." ~ Rick Perry, Former Governor

You know prepping and planning brings about success. If you fail to plan, then you plan to fail. What is it that gets you to prep & plan? Do you even do it? "There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure." ~ Colin Powell Prepare your work outside; get everything ready for yourself in the field, and after that build your house. Proverbs 24:27 ESV With Easter around the corner (as I'm recording this), I look at how God planned everything. Look at when Jesus Christ walked on earth. He prepped and planned. There was time for rest, eating, meditation, praying, teaching, learning. SO many steps prepped and planned. The pomp and circumstance of His death leading to His resurrection. So why do we tend NOT to prep and plan? Do you live for the adrenaline rush of last minute? Or do you settle for "OK"? Where do you see yourself? If God sees YOU worthy to prep and plan for, don't you think you should prep and plan for you and your family? Do you not know that

"Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity."  ~ John f.
