Four Steps To Do Anything-Getting Unstuck

There is layer upon layer of complexity and information, even if you are not out looking for information (and you must be since you’re reading this).
Programming and subconscious subterfuge occur just about 100% of the time, so much so that some people believe we don’t have free will (I’m not one of them).
 
But is life also simple?  
It is!
If we at least pretend we have free will.
Then the process for doing anything is…
  1. Accept reality by looking around and perceiving. Take it all in. When you were a baby, you did it without context. 
  1. Judge what you see. You’re not a baby, so you have concepts and definitions for what you see. Judge it. According to your values, is it good or bad?
  1. Make a decision based on your honest judgment. 
  1. Act on it.
  1. Repeat. 
Doesn’t that look so simple? It is if you know your values and are focused on them.
You have to know what you value, what you want, what you believe…
…and what you think about life because you have to judge by some standard.
And standards ought to be objective and biblical. Your values should be life-giving because if they are not about living life, what are they for?
You might say they are for serving God and others, but to me, that’s the same thing.
Praying for us all today to live in focus: Perceive, Judge, Choose, Act!
For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; — Proverbs 2:6
