CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Community is a necessity. My M and her Bible study are doing an entire study on how to “finds your people.”

For HIMs it’s much easier. To have community you have to put yourself out there for sure. Like Ms. Lippy taught you, if you want to have a friend, be a friend.

More than anything, you can’t have community without BEING THERE. Be present, be involved. Post. Sign up to Q. Take the flag for a spell.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Last Thursday, the Church celebrated the Feast of the Ascension, marking the end of the time Jesus spent on Earth after the Resurrection. In Acts, the Apostles watch Jesus ascend into the heavens & kept staring up at the sky. Those passing by noted that they don’t need to keep watch, Jesus will return the same way. Like the first Apostles, we don’t need to stare at the sky awaiting Jesus’ return but put our focus on the world and all the good we can do.

We only have 168 hours per week. 

“The happiest people spend much time in a state of flow – the state in which people are so involved in an activity that nothing else seems to matter; the experience itself is so enjoyable that people will do it even at great cost, for the sheer sake of doing it.” Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

  1. Prioritize. 2. Be clear on what energizes us. 3. Stop making excuses and do what you need to do.

Why do some people get more done than others? They understand the difference between time management, which is a fixed amount & energy management which is elastic, malleable, and subject to change. Is what we are spending our energy on important? Is staying up an extra 40 mins worth that episode? Is focusing on menial, non-important tasks @ home or work worth being drained when it’s time to spend time w/ your M or 2.0s?
