Creating a Space for Personal Growth

In this fast pace life of noise and chaos there doesn’t seem to be enough time in the day for personal growth. We are living in some perilous times, yet there are answers to today’s problems inside of each us. We all have the potential to create, invent and solve many of society’s issues if we simply take the time to discover or uncover them.

There is an old saying, “Become the change you want to see in the world.” I believe as we begin to grow personally and change ourselves for the better, we can and will create lasting change in the world. I realize the bills have to be paid, the baby has to be fed, homework has to be done, and dinner has to be prepared. But what about time to seek God; to seek answers; to grow; and to evolve? These things are just as essential to our lives as food and oxygen for our bodies. They are our Life Force.

As you begin to plan your daily schedule, be sure to create a space for personal growth and change. Give yourself permission to grow and change. We all can afford to have our lives fine tuned. I challenge you to pursue change for yourself, your family and the world. Who knows, you may have the answers inside of you that the world is waiting on.
