In this life there will never be a perfect time, the stars won’t align and your to-do list will always be filled with new tasks. Your flying solo days will progress into duel, triple and maybe even more passengers flying days when you start a family. Bills come in money flys out, and you’ll do what you can to provide and protect your family to the best of your ability. And the years will flyyyyyyy by…. Until you realize you never took the time out to make that change, pursue that dream, or even worse, you allowed yourself to stay in a jail cell because it was just comfortable enough to get by. God didn’t create use to be mediocre. But we’re so fine tuned as human beings to chase comfort or chase easy bc we’re genetically programmed to stay alive, not thrive. Thriving in this life takes more.. it takes earlier days, later nights, and challenging yourself every single day… The Bible says in Proverbs 6:10-11 “10.) A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest 11.) and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.” Fight complacency, fight normal, fight this mainstream bull crap of if you have enough to get by you have enough…. We were called to be rivers not reservoirs! Being a blessing is hard when you’re more worried about how you’re going to make it to next week.. Yeah I know… we’re blessed but we should never be complacent… and if we’re “too busy” to focus on building our Faith/Family/Fitness/Finance/Future… then maybe we need to reevaluate if we’re too busy or if the devil has that jail cell just comfortable enough you don’t really feel the need to bust out. -Alex Franks
