Hi, my friends, welcome to day 12 setting clear goals

2
00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:11.920
So Proverbs 16 3 says commit your work to the Lord and your plans will be established

3
00:00:12.600 --> 00:00:16.960
So as we think about pursuing our dream, we need to set clear goals

4
00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:22.520
We need to know where we're heading, you know asking God to help you create those goals or those

5
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:29.560
Milestones so we can make sure that the progress that we're taking or the actions that we're doing are in

6
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:35.160
Alignment with where we're heading, you know when we are clear about our direction

7
00:00:35.160 --> 00:00:38.680
it helps us to create a roadmap for success and

8
00:00:39.160 --> 00:00:45.520
God's desire is for us to be intentional with our plans not to be chaotic not to be

9
00:00:46.040 --> 00:00:52.760
Reactionary but to be proactive with him and he promises to guide us as we commit our work to him

10
00:00:53.160 --> 00:00:58.920
So today let's take some time to write down some smart goals related to your dream

11
00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:04.920
Ensuring that your goals are clear and actionable, you know smart goals

12
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:09.360
We talked about that and invite God into your planning process

13
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:14.120
You see it's not just that he wants to be there in the beginning for the dreaming stage

14
00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:17.320
he wants to be there every step of the way and

15
00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:23.920
Then ask him if these goals are from him or from you and then even ask go deeper

16
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:29.720
Like what's the why the why behind these goals so it helps motivate you and fuel you

17
00:01:29.800 --> 00:01:30.400
You know

18
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:38.120
we talked yesterday about the discomfort that you can experience in change and so when you're really linked into the why behind your

19
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:40.960
Goals, it can help you push past resistance

20
00:01:40.960 --> 00:01:46.480
And then most importantly just commit your goals to God like do it for the right reasons

21
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.440
You know not to just achieve something or to you know

22
00:01:50.440 --> 00:01:56.880
Be comparative or competitive with somebody else but really commit your goals to him to bring him glory

23
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:03.680
You know to utilize your strengths and giftings for his purposes and it says in his word that he will

24
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:06.880
Establish your plans in his path that he has for you

25
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:15.720
Okay, my friends so the activation for today is what specific goals do you want to achieve related to your dream?

26
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:22.680
Remember that your dream is like this journey in this destination and your goals your miles are the milestones

27
00:02:23.160 --> 00:02:27.920
Along the way and then your action steps are the little steps in like mile

28
00:02:28.200 --> 00:02:33.440
Miles that you take to get there and so you want to be clear that you're heading in the right direction

29
00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:39.920
With each of these milestones and that you start and just focus on the first one and then write down

30
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:43.600
these goals as smart goal smart again is

31
00:02:44.480 --> 00:02:45.760

32
00:02:45.760 --> 00:02:47.760
measurable achievable

33
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:52.400
Relevant time bound that's the smart definition for goals

34
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:59.040
And then that they align with your dream and so ask God again like what does he have?
