Have you ever caught yourself saying or thinking “I just don’t have time for that?!”
I’ve caught myself feeling those feelings of being busy, time deficient, and stressed lately. But I had to stop and remind myself I’m creating that idea!
You live into the story you tell yourself! If you are saying that “I don’t have enough time to do that!” then you’re going to get to keep that thought. And you have a choice in how you feel!
I feel like God gives us those stressed and busy feelings it’s an invitation to spend my time with Him!

I feel like rest equals trust and you have to give up control to rest. Rest shouldn’t be our last resort. A lot of the time when we finally rest it’s because we’ve hit a wall and we feel like we can’t do one more thing, answer one more message or complete one more task. Rest can be your power source for how you live your life. Rest started at sundown in Jesus’ day. I found that so interesting that in that culture, rest was such an important part of their lives.

What I did to flip my script, is to pause and remind myself “Everything you do is intentional”. I take a few moments to write down the MOST important things that I need to get done. We spend a lot of time busying ourselves with things that don’t even matter to us… That doesn’t make a lot of sense! If you’re struggling to narrow down the **REALLY** important things in your life go back to episodes 10 and 11 to help you zero in on your priorities.

If you’re like me and have something big to tackle (like moving into a new house!) and it feels incredibly overwhelming, take it one thing at a time. Breaking it down into small to-dos will help your productivity and feelings of stress and overwhelm. Don’t forget to prioritize your business. You can have peace in your home, and heart, with your family, and your business! You have to invest your time where you want to see growth! I’m still figuring it all out too. After my episode on loving yourself, I got to really thinking about how I was investing in myself and realized I haven’t been in the gym and I’m definitely not making it any closer to my goals. I felt BETTER than before after spending time on myself even though I felt busy and overwhelmed. Because I want to be healthy for me, and I need to make that a priority. I also felt good about accomplishing something I set out to do and was able to check it off my list.

Look at those stress indicators as an invitation to slow down and rest, spend time with God, reprioritize, and take action. What you do with your life is YOUR choice! Let’s look at rest as being on the offense. It might be time to say no to some things too. It may be time to get off that committee or hire help where needed. You can have peace in your heart and money in your bank if you live with intention. And I’m THRILLED for you because it’s such an enjoyable way to live life.
