When you decide to develop the champion in you, it won’t be long before you discover that you will need to evict an enemy from your life.
You might have decided you want to lose weight or perhaps simply live healthier. In order to achieve this goal you will need to make some very definite adjustments to your present life style. They may be small adjustments or they may be major disruptions. This will depend on how drastic a change you need to make and just how determined you are to achieve your goal.
You might have decided you want to change your thoughts because you understand that this will change your life. This is going to take some focused discipline and determination.
Whatever firm decision of deliberate personal change you make, know this:
You have just made a declaration of war!
As you act on your decision you will find yourself needing to move out of your comfort zone. Your life needs to change and change is not something that most human beings REALLY like. Change can be a threat to your sense of security, even when you know that the change is necessary.
- You know you need to break out of your present lifestyle patterns in order to reach your dreams.
- You know that your present lifestyle patterns are actually destroying your dreams.
- You know that you really don’t want to still be where you are now in 5 or 10 years time.
The three enemies that will try to stop you:
- You will still find your inner self putting up a fight.
- You will probably find some naysayers around you critising or scoffing at your effort.
- There is a universal enemy out doing his best to pull everyone down to destruction.
We find Jesus talking about this in John 10:10 (International Version) “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”.
This enemy is behind those negative thoughts, the negative words you hear and speak and anything else that is lanzed at you with the intention of destroying your dreams, your health and your life.
Are you prepared for war?
So what will it take to evict the enemy and win this war?
1. A Definite decision.
You will need to make a your decision a definite one, no “maybes” or let’s see how I go. You need to decide once and for all: “This is what I want, this is what it will take to get there and this is what I am going to do”.
2. Determination and Discipline
It will take determination and discipline to change your diet, stop destructive habits and change your thinking patterns. Your resolution to change will include a decision that you are going to do what it takes and push against old habits.
3. Defined action plan.
To reach any destination, you need a map. If you are familiar with the area you are moving towards, this map may already in your mind. If you are moving into territory unknown to you, then you will carry a map to consult.
Create a written plan. Then break your plan down into a daily “to do list”. This plan will include one area of your thought life that you are focusing on making positive. It may be an area that you have spoken and thought many negative words about in the past. Now, you are focusing on turning this around.
Your map (plan) will focus on your destination. Your destination is success. You are planning to overcome all negative influences in your life and reach your success goals.
Always focus on your destination (your final goal). This will make it easier to exercise the determination and discipline you need evict any enemy you encounter as your move towards achieving your goal.
And don’t forget, you DO have the power to evict the enemy in your life (if you choose to use it) because:
