"As you move toward being fully engaged, you may have to ask yourself, What have I been giving my time to? If
you are spending all your time in mind-numbing activities, it is time
to stop those and 'wake up.' Pick some things to do that are worth
your full engagement and will invite you to be there. You will be much
more fully alive....
"Ask God what is next
for you. It may be something new that stretches you into a flow
experience. Or it may mean getting engaged in what is right before
you. Perhaps you need to reorganize your job description or career so
that you spend more time doing what you are best at and what engages you
to the max. Research shows that businesses that use their people that
way have the best performance. Work with your boss to maximize your
gifts.
"Either way, whether it is showing
up more in what you are already doing, or doing some new tasks, do not
let time just slowly go by. Make it go away, as you taste a bit of
heaven by living a fully engaged life." - Dr. Henry Cloud in The Law of Happiness
Living
purposeful, not just wasting away is life giving. When we do a
depressing life then we get depressed. When we are doing worthwhile
activities we have passion for life. Setting goals and living
purposeful brings us more fully alive.
