My entry on October 6 (A Sky Full of People) listed some penetrating questions around growth. As promised, I want to address some things I listed as blocks to a succesful path of growing.<\/p>\n
Here’s a big one to ponder…who’s challenging you to grow? If you’re like many, the answer would be no one. Our culture (American society) is content to live out growth through others or even to just be lazy. People who think they’ve got time to get to one of the most important choices in life, are lulled by prosperity and conveinence. I pray that you will awaken and recognize that life is a limited time offer.<\/p>\n
I liken someone challenging me to grow as a great mentor or personal trainer. They push us to go beyond our percieved limitations (job, family background, race, religon, etc.). Often we would never discover what we could become without them.<\/p>\n
I highly recommend that you find someone to challenge you. Call them what you will, but get one! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
