So what is that for you?
When you look at your life, your work, your spirituality, your marriage, your parenting, your house, your neighborhood, your mission, your travel—what is one little thing you can do?
What’s the one thing you’re going to do soon to move forward?
Don’t choose one thing for all of those different realms. Pick one realm. And one thing you can do within that realm.
As you look at these realms (I’ll list them again below), which one seems to have the most energy for you right now?
Life
Work
Spirituality
Marriage/Romantic relationship
Parenting
House
Neighborhood
Mission
Travel
Or fill in the blank: ___________________
Let your eyes scan this list a few times. Which one rises to the surface for you? If nothing rises, close your eyes and point somewhat randomly to the screen. Don’t like where your finger landed? Try again.
Here, I’ll do this with you. . . . My finger landed on mission.
What’s one little thing I can do to move forward with my sense of mission in the world?
Got your realm?
Muse a bit. What’s one thing you can do?
I actually can think of two very doable things (I’m violating my own rule!) that I can take action on to move forward with my sense of mission. Now, if you’ll excuse me I’m going to place these two doable things on my calendar so they will get done. What gets scheduled gets done. While I’m gone, why don’t you do the same?
. . .
OK, done. You?
Congratulations. You’ve just taken the first step into a whole new adventure.
If you feel comfortable sharing, what was your one little thing?
