Feeling OVERWHELMED?

Author: Marla, 01 11th, 2008

With all the forms of communication, demands on our lives, implied expectations from the world and the media, and all around sensory overload, it is difficult to not feel overwhelmed.

 We make life more complicated than it has to be.  There are no written rules that say we have to “do it all” or “have it all”.  Whether it is us loading ourselves up with “have to’s” or others who decide what our life needs to be, You can take  charge or YOUR life. 

 You do have the power to decide for yourself.  Still there is so much information and so many choices out there, where do you begin?

 Maybe you begin with noting where your focus is in life.  What/Who is your god?  Is it the neighbors and what they have, is it the newest technology, is it being the best at …….., Is it looking a certain way, is it your relationship(s) is it having a certian amount of money?

I believe to be truly focused and be able to decide what is important to us in life and what direction we follow, we must decide what we are really seeking.  What/Who will meet our deepest needs?

How will you decide?  What does your life say about who/what  your god is?

Take inventory of what is really important to you and what your focus needs to be to get there.

Who/what will you serve in life?  It is an important question to ask and to answer.  The answer to this question shapes your entire existence.
